Nuclear Materials Disappear In Iraq

BBC reports that nuclear assets have 'vanished' in Iraq:

"Equipment and materials which could be used to make nuclear arms have been vanishing in Iraq since the invasion last year, the United Nations warns.

Satellite images show entire buildings have been dismantled without any record being made, said Mohamed ElBaradei, the head of the UN nuclear watchdog.

Iraq's US-backed leaders have not reported to the UN on the state of nuclear plants despite a duty to do so.

But they have asked the UN to help sell off unwanted nuclear material. "
