Of course...

...you're missing the point. The point is that we don't know for certain what happen to these high explosives. We know for certain that they were there just as the war was getting started - secured and under seal. Then we chased out the IAEA inspection and now we have no idea where these explosives are and who has them.

Its symbolic of the whole problem. In fact, there are about 250,000 tons of conventional munitions unaccounted for in Iraq. These materials are now being used on a daily basis against American troops and Iraqi civilians.

These circumstances also point out the folly of Mr. Bush's whole premise for going to war - to secure Saddam's mythical weapons of mass destruction and to keep them out of the hands of terrorists. Just imagine if the administration's claims about Saddam's WMDs were actually true. Who do you think would have them now given how difficult it has been to secure conventional munitions? Fact is, if these WMDs actually existed, Bush's dirty little war would have had exactly the opposite effect as intended - his war would have driven and delivered these devices into the hands of terrorists - the very people the war was supposed to keep from getting them.

The Qaqaa debacle is just one more example that this nation is being governed by buffoons and idiots who haven't a clue how the world works. These jerks are living in a fantasy world driven by a theoretical philosophy about foreign policy that has its roots in ideology rather than reality. Its a dangerous condition for the American people. Its a dangerous conditions for the world.
