DPRK Nukes to Iraq (Sankei pickup via Reuters via Wash. Post) Treat as suspect. Sankei does have good sources in the SDF, but the paper being leaked unverifiable for political or military purposes. 2003.08.06

Holy Uranium (Kyodo) Well, the first a-bomb test was at Trinity, New Mexico after all. As a correspondent, seriously, it is always refreshing to see a departure from the typical anniversary comments. I was there in person for the 50th anniversary of the Hiroshima attack. I actually prefer the exhibitions in Nagasaki to the ones in Hiroshima. Some foreigners remark that Hiroshima appears to make a tourist industry out of the A-bombing where Nagasaki's is more spiritual in nature. 2003.08.06
