I said last night that the NYT phrase "huge cache" was a double lie.


It was not huge: 380 tons represents one tenth of one percent (.1%) of all the ammo destroyed by coalition forces so far.


Nor was it a cache: 'cache' refers to a hidden stock, yet the location of this stuff was documented by the IAEA, VERY well documented . . . apparently documented SO well that thieves knew exactly where to get it long before we got there.


"Huge cache?" It was neither . . . a situation quite like "Wonder Bread," which is neither.
