CIA couldn't even find out if Saddam Hussein had chemical weapons, something as contemporary as that and the idiots think they can find Noah's Ark after 5,000 years?

    exactly!

You know, you'll be surprised that a lot of Muslim commentators and so-called scholars have borrowed many of those illogical Christian views regarding the flood in Prophet Noah's community.  They try to downplay the difference between Mount Judi and Ararat, in support of the altered bibles, as if Quran and altered bibles are the same.  They say that  mountain of Ararat in Genesis refers to the entire mountainous region in Armenia between the Black and Caspian Seas, including Mount Judi.
They say Ararat extends from the Armenian plateau to southern Kurdistan and mount  Judi is part of this range.  That's not a correct argument.  A plateau is a tableland or a high plain that can stretch unbroken for thousands of square miles within a country or between different countries of a continent and contain rivers and canyons.  If you look up the map, Mt. al-Judi is situated far away from Ararat.  The distance between Mt. Judi and Ararat is at least 200 miles, if not more.  Therefore Mt. Judi and Ararat are 2 different mounts with 2 different locations.  Being on the same plateau does not mean same location.  With a distance of 200 miles between the 2 mounts, obviously the Ark stopped near one of these two mounts, not both.

See this map.  Look at the distance between Mt. Judi and Ararat.
