SOME 200,000 guns the US sent to Iraqi security forces may have been smuggled to terrorists, it was feared yesterday.If you think this sort of thing happens without the approval of the Bush administration -- or at least of the neocon faction within the Pentagon -- all I can say is: Stop being so naive. Here we have the most damning evidence yet that someone wants to foment civil war in Iraq.
The 99-tonne cache of AK47s was to have been secretly flown out from a US base in Bosnia. But the four planeloads of arms have vanished.
Orders for the deal to go ahead were given by the US Department of Defense. But the work was contracted out via a complex web of private arms traders.

Accidents do happen...
...but this ain't one of 'em. The Mirror asks: "HAVE 200,000 AK47S FALLEN INTO THE HANDS OF IRAQ TERRORISTS?"

This may seem tin-foil hattish, but I swear my friend is trustworthy.
He says that when he served his two tours in Vietnam, troops were always coming upon cache's of American weapons left behind by the Viet-cong, and their commanders always ordered them to leave them where they lay.hmmmmmmmm.
IMO Civil War in Iraq has always been an option this Administration could live with.
They dismantled the Iraqi military and Police instead of purging the leadership, and allowed them to keep their weapons.
They dismantled the Iraqi Government instead of purging the leadership.
If you wanted to shatter a country and create chaos this seems to me to like a pretty good start, and if the existing ethnic and religious hatreds were then encouraged with a little violence...
There have been reports that coalition member personnel have been accused of being caught dressed like Iraqis with bombs in their possession.

Of course this site also has a point of view.
Now, when the insurgents might be getting low on weapons along comes this report. Could this be a way to supply them with more weapons?
A fragmented Iraq serves this Administration's propose just fine since a united Iraq might actually be able to assume control its oil fields, and the revenue generated by them.
This scenario is right out of the movie "Lord of War", probably complete with fradulent end-user certificates and what not.
Someone should ask the Iraqi defense forces if they actually requested, or more importantly, had the money to pay for these guns.
