“My guess where it all came from, yellowcake can reproduce while in Iraq. Because surly Saddam wasn’t able to get anymore because of the sanctions. The New York Times told us that.”

Is this the Yellowcake that came from Africa? The same Yellowcake Joe Wilson told us Saddam never bought? The same Yellowcake that got Karl Rove and Scooter Libby into a world of hurt from the MSM?

I don't think anyone knows where the extra yellowcake came from, or aren't talking, but my understanding is that Iraq had 350 metric tonnes that the UN knew about and when the US forces got there it had multiplied and became 550 metric tonnes.

Why no one cared to make a point of it, like maybe Bush doing a presser at the uranium processor in Canada pointing this pout is beyond me.

550 metric tonnes was enough for 140 nukes of the Hiroshima size according to experts who ran the numbers.
