Peter asks: Please tell me then what your definition of 500 tons of yellow cake uranium is?

Sure, i’ll tell you: It’s bull****. Yellowcake uranium is a commonly traded commodity. Every country that has nuclear capabilities buys and sells it. It is not enriched and cannot be used as a WMD without first going through a complicated enrichment process, which Iraq was unable to do because it has no nuclear power generating plants. So basically Iraq has been sitting on this very low-grade crap for years with nothing to do with it because every time Iraq builds a nuclear processing plant, Israel smartly destroys it.
So… no WMDs.
