    Actually I've seen no evidence that Iraq possesses true weapons of
    mass destruction. By true WMDs I mean nuclear weapons. Chemical and
    biological weapons have just never been shown to be on the same level
    of danger as nuclear weapons.

    I do agree that Iraq wants to build a nuclear weapon, and that the
    only thing holding it back from doing so is access to weapons grade
    uranium or plutonium. Of course, just about any country on earth
    could build a nuclear weapon if it had weapons grade uranium or
    plutonium. So could any major university.
