1.7 tons of nuke material removed from Iraq
Vodkapundit points out the story at the BBC.
That's about 3500 pounds of the stuff. Expect to read this on the front page of your local paper. Yeah, right.
Update -- If metric tons, make that about 6000 pounds. A commenter on Stephen's link says that much could make 177 of the Fat man type bomb which was one of the ones dropped on Japan.
