This facility was capable of producing material that could later be used in the construction of nuclear weapons. Thankfully, this lab was not fully operational because it was still in the installation stage. Iraq had continued its lying ways when asked about the plant at Tarmiya and also another plant located in Ash Sharkat. Both of these plants were to be used to help with the process of making nuclear weapons. In addition to these three plants, Iraq also tried to cover up a plant in Mos...
