RE: 190,000 weapons 'missing in Iraq'
Blart isn't it.
Still, now old Sadman has gone there's no one to buy them outright over there, and I suppose that selling weapons is as important to the yanks' national security as it is to ours.
So, er, it's a good thing really as lots of, em, jobs will be guaranteed for next year because those guns will have to be replaced?!
We've had most of the cash from African nations buying our guns (got to protect the land that could grow crops from neighbouring nations that are buying arsenals to protect their potential crops from their neighbours, who, in turn...), and those meddling liberal pinko lefties have made sales to SA a bit awkward, so these Iraq weapons will no doubt be charged to the Iraq government at some point. If they're not then it's obviously our duty as taxpayers to stand in and support our super-rich when they're down to profits in millions instead of billions.
Or maybe it's just blart.
Reminds me that the UK's council investments in weapons should be available to weep over about now. Staffordshire invested 13m squids in international arms manufacturers last year. How did your council do?
