IAEA finds uranium traces at Syrian site: diplomats
VIENNA (Reuters) - U.N. investigators have found traces of uranium at a Syrian site Washington says was a secret nuclear reactor almost built before Israel bombed the target last year, diplomats said on Monday.
They said the minute uranium particles turned up in some environmental swipe samples U.N. inspectors took at the site in a visit last June. They said the finding was not enough to draw conclusions but raised concerns requiring further clarification.
The International Atomic Energy Agency and Syria had no immediate comment. However, word of the finding leaked hours after IAEA officials confirmed Director Mohamed ElBaradei was preparing a formal written report on Syria for the first time.
Moreover, Syria has been made an official agenda item at the year-end November 27-28 meeting of the U.N. watchdog's 35-nation board of governors, unlike previously when IAEA officials said initial inquiries were inconclusive.
Syria denies U.S. intelligence alleging it was building a reactor with North Korean expertise meant to make plutonium, the main atomic bomb ingredient reprocessed from spent uranium fuel. If proven this would violate the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

Rove had the samples planted to serve as cover for his crimes and those of his neocon zionist masters.

The IAEA? That's a scary thought in and of itself.

The IAEA? That's a scary thought in and of itself.
The fact that it's the IAEA publishing the report says that the real "traces" of Uranium were probably large enough lumps of pure, weapons-grade shit to assemble into a dozen or two warheads in the megaton range (Yes, I'm aware that this range is normally reserved for the "hydrogen" devices...).
You know how these 'tards "don't like to be alarmist". ::)
