Mushroom Clouds?
October 26, 2003 12:52 AM

Remember the administration's claims that war with Iraq was necessary NOW because of the imminent threat of a "mushroom cloud?" Well, the Washington Post has a pretty comprehensive article this morning concerning the hunt for Saddam's nuclear program (in particular those aluminum tubes the administration kept citing as proof of a reconstituted program).

Here's a blurb:
"They're not acting as if they take their own analysis seriously," said Joseph Cirincione, director of the nonproliferation project at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. "If they were so worried about these tubes, that would be the kind of sensitive equipment you'd think the administration would want to seize, to prevent it from going somewhere else -- Iran, Syria, Egypt."
