From the Washington Times
Iraqi security reportedly discovered three missiles carrying nuclear heads concealed in a concrete trench northwest of Baghdad, official sources said Wednesday.The official daily al-Sabah quoted the sources as saying the missiles were discovered in trenches near the city of Tikrit, the hometown of ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.
"The three missiles were discovered by chance when the Iraqi security forces captured former Baath party official Khoder al-Douri who revealed during interrogation the location of the missiles saying they carried nuclear heads," the sources said.
They pointed out that the missiles were actually discovered in the trenches lying under six meters of concrete and designed in a way to unable sophisticated sensors from discovering nuclear radiation.
So wait a second...I thought that there were no WMDs in Iraq...I mean except for the sarin shells with the capacity to kill up to 50,000 people each, the 1.7 tons of uranium, and now the three NUCLEAR WARHEADS...
What's next' Ebola filled suicide packs? I guess it wasn't the president who "lied", after all.
And hey, guess what, this panned out just like all the other wolf-crying WMD claims. Not true.

It's not a 'vast stockpile', though! And I doubt the missiles had the range to strike the U.S., anyway.
