Nuke component unearthed in Baghdad back yard
Of course the news channels are breathless about this, but let's take a minute and look at what was actually found. A few parts of a gas centrifuge that dated back to 1991 and had been buried for twelve years. Not a centrifuge, some parts of a centrifuge. It takes hundreds, perhaps thousands, of actual working centrifuges, large-scale facilities in which to operate them, and fissile material to start producing the material that goes into a bomb, then you need the delivery system. You could make this same discovery in almost every country on Earth.
