Yellowcake in Rotterdam Harbor May Be From Iraq

FOXNews.com [1] is reporting today that:

“A recycling company found uranium oxide — a radioactive material also known as yellowcake (search) — in a shipment of scrap steel it believes originally came from Iraq (search), the company said Thursday.

Paul de Bruin, spokesman for Rotterdam-based Jewometaal, said that the shipment was passed on last month from a Jordan metal dealer who was unaware it contained any forbidden materials.

“I’ve dealt with this man for 15 years and he says he’s sure it came from Iraq,” De Bruin said. He said Jewometaal had been asked not to reveal the name of the Jordanian exporter while the find was being investigated. “

Boortz [2] comments this morning that:

“That’s right…this is the exact same yellowcake that George Bush was talking about Iraq trying to purchase in Africa during his State of the Union address last year.  Remember that whole brouhaha about Bush misleading the American people?  According to a researcher at the University of Missouri-Columbia, the material found has no non-nuclear use. None. Zippo. “

Which should end the discussion about our intel of their obtaining yellowcake,a nd stifle the ‘Bush Lied” Mantra. Boortz also says to this point, something I lay out in 256 colors in this weekend’s BIT:

“Make no mistake, the cornerstone of their effort to win in November rests solely on the whole “Bush lied” theory”

Sorry, leftists, you lose as usual.
