Saddam Hussain was rebuilding it a while ago (out of cheap concrete)For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

I highly doubt that Saddam has nukes. And I highly doubt that even he would hide one in that city.
My favorite? Limerick, in Ireland.
My second favorite? New York.
For a more complete lise, lemme just go hit F11, or go to the world menu, and pull up the top five cities chart...
It looks like the top five are:
London, Washington, New York, Hastings, Boston.

I don't think Prague is the most beautiful. But it's my favorite.
Washington is quite nice.
After considering all the factors, I guess I haven't seen enough of the world to judge. I've never been to Asia or Africa.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

I heard once that during the Persian Gulf war, Saddam was hiding weapons in the ruins of Ur and that the USA bombed the ruins.
