Missing Munitions In Iraq

It's simply amazing to think that there is no error large enough for this administration to admit to, especially when it comes to the Iraq War, but blaming our troops for the missed opportunity to capture a large quantity of Saddams arsenal at al Qaqaa is just pathetic.

Wasn't it the current administration that balked at sending more than 100,000 or so troops to the Gulf in the first place? And wasn't it George W. himself that told his pastor, Jerry Falwell not to worry because there wouldn't be any casualties?

Now it seems that the terrorists we're fighting today may be using the very same explosives we should have captured immediately after the fall of Bagdad. After all, our troops knew its location, opened the doors and broke open the seals left by the IAEA just before the invasion took place ... and then simply walked away from it.

How could we leave over 300 tones of high explosives completely unguarded just waiting for someone with the right motivation to come along and take it?

That, I am sure, would be more than enough to use against our troops for the next decade at least. The Iraqi's might just run out of people before they run out of munitions to kill our troops with. And there is just one person we can thank for that.
