From the Christian Science Monitor comes this story about the return of Iraqi professors from self imposed exile.
But right up front we see this:
After a decade of sanctions had left his physics lab a crumbling shell, Raad Mohammed decided it was time to go.
Apparently in the mind of the author there is no connection between the crumbling physics lab and Saddam & the Baathists. Nope...it was those darned UN sanctions that were responsible.
Interestlingly, those sanctions didn't slow the pace of presidential palace construction.
This complaint aside, it actually is a good story.
