The version in Spanish has more:

A ton and a half of military weapons, considered the largest seizure executed in the country, was seized yesterday morning at the home of a Nicaraguan professor of sociology (University Panama David) in the El Francés area south of Boquete,

My bet is that these arms were shipped here by the Ortega/Chavez/Castro gang and the bills were probably paid by China/Iran.  The next question is how big is the cache they haven't found yet.

...police uncovered the weapons in a private residence, whose occupant is a sociology professor at the Universidad Autónoma de Chiriquí.

Has there ever been a "sociology professor" who was NOT a freakin' commie radical?

Is this the villa I was buying? The seller assured me that the bunker comes with the rest of the property.

My friend was professor of sociology at Carolina and he retired as Professor Emeritus and still exists a conservative

He is however, the exception to the rule.

When the class won't sit quietly, the prof sometimes fires an AK-47 into the air.

“...The police commissioner ... said the teacher was taken into custody
and that further investigations will reveal
whether or not there are other individuals involved...”

It’s pretty obvious to me, commissioner.

Time will tell.   I'd really want to believe that we're looking at old left-over's from decades ago, but Obama just set Noriega free. 

Coincidence?

What the H... is a 60 caliber mortar round? Is it anything like a 60mm mortar round?

I have no doubt they came from the Chavez/Ortega/Castro/Obama cabal, but where were they headed? To Marxists in Honduras and Colombia, or the to US?

This makes my skin crawl.

Any ideas as to where and against whom they were going to be used?

And as stated, how many more are still hidden?

I haven’t been out yet to buy the paper, so this has taken me by surprise.

Also, Don Winner dosn’t have anything on his blog yet.

Hey I'm SO glad you came back to me here, I tried to ping you but I kept getting your freepname wrong!

The story just came out this morning so you know everything that I do.  My wife and I are planning on checking out the new road from Volcan to Boquete and I'll let you know if I come across any new rumors.  Remember that Noriega's from Chiriqui and that Torrijos started his coup here.  That, and a few years ago when the were expanding the David airport they accidentally dug up a mass grave.

Maybe I need to go hide under my bed for a while.  Say, a year or two?

Probably.  The words 'mm' and caliber get mixed up a lot when they sell sheet metal too.
