What were our contractors doing there in the first place? Dissolving illegal militia weapons?

"What were our contractors doing there in the first place? Dissolving illegal militia weapons?"
The answer is yes. With either hydrochloric, sulphuric, or nitric acid. All are known to possess the chemical properties of "dissolving" militia's metallic weapons.
Thanks for giving me a pass. Seriously. All your concerns are of equal and valid importance. In all sincerity.
I'm still wondering what the morons in the WH and DOS where thinking about to over throw the Libyan regime who where willing to stop their wmd programs and keep the totally royal asshole level Islamist of all stripes from getting out of hand in that country.
Of course that question is rhetorical in nature having shifted it pretty much out in my mind. And it don't look good for the goon that runs the executive branch as well as the goon in control of the DOS.
