Title: Iraq : lost missiles
Post by: mitac on November 06, 2004, 12:04:13 pm

Here (http://www.nytimes.com/2004/11/06/politics/06weapons.html)'s the news.

Well, anybody want to celebrate the New Year in Iraq? They're sure preparing for some nice fireworks, thinking of the 300+ tons of explosives that vanished some time ago. :nervous:

Meh, they can add to the pile of Stingers left over from Afghanistan.....it's inevitable the 'small arms' like assault rifles, RPGs, etc from the Iraqi arms dump would/have been looted or simply taken home and sold by deserters.

Old as in the news is old, but it was only reported recently, and incorrectly.

Hmm, this makes me wonder why that japanese tourist they killed days ago was visiting Iraq. Fishing for souvenirs, eh? :doubt:
