Yay.

The Defense Department cannot account for 190,000 weapons, including more than 110,000 AK-47 rifles, issued to Iraqi security forces, a new report by government investigators says.

The study, issued last Tuesday by the Government Accountability Office, also said that because of missing and incomplete records, the United States military cannot confirm that Iraqi security forces received 135,000 pieces of body armor and 115,000 helmets.

    Perhaps it’s the US and not Iran that is the number 1 supplier of arms to insurgents and terrorists inside Iraq.

    Since it’s axiomatic that more guns means less crime, it seems obvious to me that we need to send more weaponry to Iraq. QED.

    This is totally unacceptable, unless you’re a wingnut.

    Then you scream that it’s just more Bush-bashing, and there has to be a reason not reported by the Mainstream Media..

    I’m sure every one of those guns is programmed to only kill terrorists.

    I guess the only “AK’s” that will matter are the kind dreamed up by J.K. Rowling…

    Perhaps they are with that missing $300 billion dollars.

    I guess it’s an extension of the GW Bush “fight the over there” policy. How can we fight them over there if they don’t have weapons?
