Even that small amount was FORBIDDEN by the terms of the treaty.
So, it wasn't present in the quantity for mass destruction, but it certainly demonstrates a propensity to flout the requirements of the UN treaty.

But again - It was secured by the IAEA NOT the Iraqis - the materials technically belonged to the UN, and the Iraqis had to request permission to use it. Saddam did not have his hand in the Al Qa Qaa cookie jar - so to speak - I included links in my other post or better yet, start googling Catz, you'll see what I mean. This was a weapons facility secured by the IAEA but neglected by the US military because it was put as a level 2 priority by the Bush adminstration.
