These "experts" are hired to sound scared.
Saddam was Not as little as a year away from building a nuke.
He didn't have weapns-grade uranium or plutoniom, nor the capacity to
machine either.
As far as the plans go, Any nation in the world with a moderate
technical capacity and sufficient money is about 5-8 years away from
building a nuke.
Saddam was no closer than that.
