Nope, thanks. On the other, try googling "Osirak." I'm sure there's a Wikipedia entry or something on it. Otherwise, you can rely on my hazy memory of the facts. In the early '80's, Israel bombed a nuclear reactor that the French helped build in Iraq, at a place called Osirak (sp?). I think it was supposed to be a light water reactor but Israel believed it could be used to enrich uranium. They took it out with an airstrike. The political repercussions were somewhat less than you might expect--or at least it seemed that way at the time.

I understand how this might have escaped your notice--I don't know how old you were back then. I'm also giving you the benefit of the doubt regarding your attention span and school curriculum. After all, some kids focus exclusively on eating paste and jamming the fat end of the crayon up their nose.

Resume-padding for a White House internship, as it were.
