They were still talking about it on every news outlet I heard or read yesterday.
The "fact" that the weapons disappeared after the invasion has been shown to be conjecture at best. The facts as we have them are that the IAEA knew about the weapons but did not inform us of this high value target until after they had been taken. They were taken sometime between the time that the inspectors left and when the US first reached the location and found no such stores of weapons.

If anyone is to blame, it's the IAEA for not working with the US to notify us as to where these high value targets were. So disproved might be a little too extreme. My bad. Presenting the story as "Bush lost 380 tons of weapons" is just as extreme and baseless however.
