If my name were Saddam Hussein, I wouldn't trust that Israeli intelligence WOULDN'T figure out the source of the fissionables. It's not like there's really more than two viable possibilities (Pakistan being the other). I also wouldn't trust that the nuked Israelis wouldn't nuke me back even without hard evidence.
