I thought the lie was that Iraq's weapons of mass destruction posed an imminent threat to the US.

I don't think yellow cake is much of an imminent threat, especially when you don't have a facility to refine it and convert it to a nuclear weapon.
 
You might want to investigate your sources more thoroughly before posting them. The question was not even if Sadam had yellow cake, it was about the knowingly forged documents regarding purchase from Nigeria and of his ability to turn base raw materials into usable uranium.

It is also funny how everyone that keeps repeating this story keeps failing to mention that the yellowcake was there under license and we knew about it. In other words, this was a pre-identified, pre-existant and widely documented cache of non-weapons grade yellowcake known and monitored by the UN and the IAEA. It was listed as being stored in "decaying metal drums" and being "less than suitable for weapons grade."

Plus, this is a borderline drive by posting.
