No, I'm talking about the *non-existent" yellow cake from Niger. The 500
tons you are referring to, predates the 1991 Gulf War. You do, of
course, remember the 1981 Israel bombing of the Tuwaitha nuclear
facility, back when Saddam *did* have a nuclear program. That is the
yellow cake you are referring to and it had been cataloged and under
control of UN inspectors since shortly after the 1991 Gulf War.

But keep trying, sometime, somewhere, you may find a small bit of truth
in Bush's buildup for war. Then weigh the cost, 500 tons of yellow cake,
4000 young American lives, 500 tons of yellow cake, $500 billion. Of
course, $500 billion isn't worth what it was before the present
administration.

On the world news last night they had a piece about Iraq not spending
their surpluses on rebuilding. Largely because their thought is that
the U.S. blew it up, the U.S. should fix it:

Unbelievable...there must be quite a few American leaders getting their
hands greased to allow this to happen.





The United States exists mainly for its corporations.
