Radioactive material in Iraq is missing and there are fears that some little JV terror team, called ISIS, might have them. Peachy.

Some past articles regarding WMDs in Iraq. You know, the ones the left still claim never existed.
Article from 2008:
500 tons of uranium shipped from Iraq, Pentagon says
The United States secretly shipped out of Iraq more
than 500 tons of low-grade uranium dating back to the Saddam Hussein era, the
Pentagon said Monday.

Article from 2014:
The New York Times published an article this week that has re-ignited a 12-year-old debate: Was then-President George W. Bush right about Iraq? The report examined U.S. service personnel's encounters with abandoned chemical weapons in Iraq – and some conservatives were quick to pounce on the story as evidence that claims by Bush in the lead-up to the war that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction were true and that the United States' 2003 invasion was justified.
The article by Times reporter C.J. Chivers focused on U.S. soldiers who suffered from exposure to the sulfur mustard and other nerve gases which emitted from the bombs. According to the story, about "5,000 chemical warheads, shells or aviation bombs" were found scattered across Iraqi soil. The U.S. government buried the cases from both the public and the troops. As a result, injured soldiers did not receive proper medical treatment.

I remember UN inspectors giving ample notice to Iraqi officials before arriving to inspect buildings. Not like the Iraqis would move out weapons ahead of those scheduled inspections and then there was the radio chatter between Iraqis, reported on CNN, where they talked about the UN inspectors coming and how they needed to get trucks loaded and gone. I'm sure that was totally innocent because we can trust Iraq. The remnants of chemical labs were also just a coincidence.
The left says there were never any weapons and the UN inspectors were able to inspect every inch of Iraq and would have found weapons (small enough to fit into a case) and no way could Iraqis have moved anything out without those inspectors catching on.
