Hey, shit happens
As you know, we invaded Iraq to make America safer because Saddam was a threat and had lots of weapons of mass destruction. So how embarrassing that 350 tons of high explosives have gone missing from al-Qaqaa, an Iraqi military facility near Baghdad.
You might think that securing the explosives would have been central to the military’s mission in Iraq, or at least that it would be close to the top of the invasion to-do list. But you’d be wrong. Apparently keeping track of 350 tons of stuff that blows up took a lower priority than protecting the Oil Ministry building from looters.
