This just repeatedly says that if Iraq ever was able to enrich uranium, it could be bad down the line, being the first step, not the final step, into the production of wmds

Nobody is denying that.

What there is zero evidence for is that there was ever enriched uranium or operations to enrich uranium happening before, during or after the 2003 Iraq invasion.

The latest article you reference agrees with every other credibly sourced article about Iraqi WMDs, including every investigative team from the UN and the US that went into Iraq following the 2003 invasion and confirmed that there is no or was no enriched uranium in iraq or any method by which Iraq could produce enriched uranium, entirely lacking the necessary infrastructure, resources, and most importantly, technical expertise and scientific personnel.
