The last remnant of Iraq's nuclear program (a huge stockpile of concentrated natural uranium) reached a Canadian port on July 5, 2008. This completed a secret U.S. operation that included a two-week airlift from Baghdad and a ship voyage crossing of two oceans.
See anything wrong with this picture? For more than five years, the "Looney Left" and the Mainstream Media have said that Bush lied about weapons of mass destruction. "Bush Lied and People Died." Somehow, that slogan loses its credibility now that 550 metric tons of yellowcake (used for nuclear weapon enrichment) have been shipped to Canada for a new use in the nuclear energy field.
In 2003 American troops found 550 metric tons of uranium after invading Iraq. Our troops had to sit on this information and the uranium itself, for fear of terrorists attempting to steal it. It was guarded and kept safe by our military in a 23,000-acre site, with large sand beams surrounding the site.
This is a vindication for the Bush administration. They were attacked mercilessly by the Mainstream Media and the far-left pundits concerning the missing "WMD’s". Now that it is proven that President Bush did not lie about Saddam's nuclear ambitions, one would think the Mainstream Media would report the story. Once the AP released the story, the Mainstream Media should have picked it up and broadcast it worldwide, Right?
Wrong! This never happened, due in large part to the fact that the Mainstream Media would have to admit they were wrong about Bush's war motives all along. Thankfully, the AP got it right when it said, "The removal of 550 metric tons of yellowcake (the seed material for higher-grade nuclear enrichment) was a significant step toward closing the books on Saddam's nuclear legacy."
Conservatives now have another reason to say the "War in Iraq" was entirely correct! As far as the anti-war crowd is concerned, the next time they say that Bush lied, they should be told that THEY ARE WRONG. (Read the article yourself by going to the article at the address below.)
