So, apparently, they've quietly removed
550 metric tons of uranium
from a site in Iraq -- so queitly, in fact, that the media burried the AP
article that was released over a week ago. Now, granted, the material they
removed isn't actual weapons-grade uranium, but it's a mediary step in the
process. I don't know, but I think something like this adds a little
credence to the original reasoning for the war, that Saddam was working to
manufacture weapons of mass destruction.

I know nothing factual about what might or might not have happened, but all things considered with the time between now and the invasion, that's plenty of time to have manufactured the evidence to point to the existence of WMDs back before the invasion.

That could certainly be the case, I won't argue otherwise without backing, but I'm more interested in why the media isn't saying anything about it, especially if there were hints that it wasn't on the up-and-up.

Hm. Perhaps because Iraq's WMDs are considered "yesterdays news"?
