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.

I think Kerry said in a speech today that the weapons cache was something like " the biggest missing or theft of dangerous weapons in HISTORY" I am givind a very vague paraphrase but I know he said the "in HISTORY" part. He was being very hyperbolic. This over 380 ton and Tony said Saddam had moved 200,000 tons? Kerry really is a scairdy cat/
