In a nutshell, this article explains that the US Govt had, until it was taken down recently, a number of Iraqi documents showing the details of Saddam's pre 1991 nuclear development program, to include some details that the US DoE, the IAEA, and some non proliferation sorts thought were waaaaaaay too sensitive for public domain, easy internet access due to their specific technical nature. (Not convinced that all things needed for nukes aren't in the hands of them as wants them, but aiding and abetting does not seem a wise course.)
So, to make political points on nukes for Saddam, US publishes bits that would help anyone with an eye to making a useful pocket nuke on the web.
I just had to laugh.
The opening bits:
You can't make up stuff this stupid, unless you are Peter Sellers. He's dead.

Looks like bush will have to bring back a joke from his past to clear this one up:
"hmmm. where are those WMD documents?
Over here? nope!
Under here? nope!
Behind here? nope!
lets google it! There they are!"
