550 tons of yellowcake was found in Iraq. From the LA times, dated July 6, 2008:
MONTREAL — The last major remnant of Saddam Hussein’s nuclear program — a huge stockpile of concentrated natural uranium — reached this Canadian port Saturday, completing a secret U.S. operation that included an airlift from Baghdad and a voyage across two oceans.
The removal of about 550 tons of “yellowcake” — the seed material for high-grade nuclear enrichment — was a significant step toward closing the books on Hussein’s nuclear legacy. It also brought relief to U.S. and Iraqi authorities who had worried that the cache would fall into the hands of insurgents or Shiites hoping to advance Iran’s alleged nuclear ambitions.

I plan on writing an article on the pentagon report on Saddam’s papers. There is so much information that ties Saddam actively to terrorist groups. Saddam was training, paying, and supporting terrorist actions both inside and outside of Iraq specifically against US and Israeli interests. What we do know is that Saddam issued hundreds of passports to known terrorists (p.19, p.27). He actively provided training for terrorists and financed terrorist actions. (p.21,p.27) To say Al-Qaeda was not in Iraq before the US invasion is an outright lie. Not surprising is the fact that the MSM has completely ignored this document other than stating there is no smoking gun. The preface states this, but there is so much in this document that should be front page news. The liberal bias of the MSM is again seen in the blatant suppressing of the information within this document.
