380-ton stockpile of bomb supplies missing. Was safe before though!

Team Kerry/NewYorkTimes said that the fact that 380 tons of bomb material has gone missing from Iraq is proof that the world is NOT safer now that Saddam Hussein has been removed from power.  All that bomb stuff could kill hundreds of thousands of people.  Just one pound brought Pan Am Flight 103 down over Scotland.

You see, before the dumb American imperialists under tyrant team Bush/Cheney/Halliburton/Wolfowitz/Rumsfeld/Rove as led by Ann Coulter and her team Right Wing Agenda/Neo-Cons went in there and invaded, you know, for oil, all those bomb-making stockpiles—countless thousands of tons of the stuff—which Saddam didn’t have, by the way (remember?) was safe in Saddam’s hands, since Saddam was a just another hippy peacenick. 

And he was going to use it to grow posies. 

But now that it’s been discovered that the stockpile of all those hundreds of tons of bomb supplies which wasn’t there was there, and now it isn’t there again, now it’s a danger.  Only now, not before.

See, it was better when we didn’t know nuthin.

And that’s why it’s always best to bury your head in the sand rather than do anything.  Vote Democrat.

——UPDATE thanks to LGF——

While the New York Times and John Kerry yell about 380 tons of missing explosives, a report at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reveals that in June 2004, the Army Corps of Engineers had destroyed or accounted for at least 248,000 tons of weaponry in Iraq: WMD? Iraq is teeming with conventional arms. (Hat tip: LawHawk.)

Although the world’s attention has focused on the failure to find weapons of mass destruction, scant attention has been paid to the mountains of weapons of conventional destruction unearthed in Iraq.

The bombs, rockets, grenades, cannon shells and bullets amount to the world’s fourth-largest stockpile of weapons, Army Corps of Engineers officials say. An estimated 600,000 tons of munitions with markings from all over the world, including the United States, and some so old that the weapons that fired them are no longer made, were stashed in Saddam’s innumerable caches.

To date, 110,000 tons have been destroyed. An additional 138,000 tons are stored behind protective barriers. Saddam seemed to hoard this cornucopia of death aimlessly. “There are no aisles to walk down. It’s just heaped,” he said. “It just blows your mind to see this stuff.”
