You're exagerrating, but since you won't read the article I won't bother to explain how.
Fortunately, we can all rest comfortably, knowing that "any simpleton" who would want to build a nuke could not POSSIBLY have had access to that same information via the Internet.

the important story is that the NYT thinks the publication of classified information is extremely dangerous, even after they've leaked the NSA and SWIFT programs (the latter, having basically apologized for), probably in violation of the law

So you wanted the headline to read "Times Decides Publishing Classified Information Is Bad"? Where would the phrase "Bush Administration Tells Arabic-Speaking World How To Build An A-Bomb" go?

the important story is that - not in the 90's - but still in 2002 - Saddam was only a year away from a developed nuke

Saddam was only a year away from a developed nuke, from the 1990s through 2002? That's one long-ass year.
