    As far as I'm concerned, the odds that 190,000 weapons (provided from US to IZ troops) were "stolen" from iraqis is so slim-to-none that it's not even a credible possibility...

    Ah, but you are assuming I said "all." I did not.

    So you assert that no terrorist would steal an Iraqi soldier's weapon? Even after terrorists have killed thousands of Iraqi soldiers?

    Got it. Yeah, those terrorists are pretty honest guys. They'd never hide behind women and children, blow up kids, or steal weapons :rolleyes:

    Where's Beauchamp when you need him? Heh!

    There he goes again! From middle school cheerleaders back to little boy's little willies.

    This is so disturbing on every level.

    Let's imagine that terrorist have killed 10,000 Iraqi soldier and each soldier was carrying 4 AK47 (actually the terrorist wouldn't need to kill them in this case, they would die of being so tired), and every AK47 was stolen, it still makes only 40,000 AK47 while the number which is missing is much more? :rolleyes:

    You didn't say "some" either... We were talking about the fact that about 190,000 weapons "disappeared" then you referenced the weapons directly...

    Sure, but 190,000? Why would they steal 190,000 weapons when they could just pay off the IZ soldiers?

    Resorting to this type of argument is sad, we're not debating the morals of a "terrorist"; we're talking about the reasons why 190,000 weapons went missing...

    Let's stay on topic

    Actually, let me help you stay honest on this. I presented "some" scenarios. Again, I did not state "all" Nor should "all" be the common denominator to simply dismiss the possiblity that some were stolen.

    Yep, and I presented some scenarios why weapons might be missing. Apparently you are not interested in those. So why not just blame Bush for it and we can just move on?

    God forbid that an honest terrorist might steal some weapons :rolleyes:

    Why don't you PM Gtech instead? It seems your postings has no other purpose than winning back your man after little will has left you. ;):D

    I don't even see what you're arguing now...

    Ok, is it possible that "terrorists" stole weapons, OF COURSE! But is it likely that they stole 190,000? No, NOT AT ALL.

    If you're really just saying that terrorists stealing weapons could have contributed a very small amount to the total 190,000 missing weapons, then sure, it's a possibility... But I feel the way you worded your first statement, you were implying that they were a major, if not the sole cause, of the missing ak's and pistols...

    you have already lost this debate, just like you lose all the others....

    also, in regards to the weapons...some could be smuggled out of the country as well...and as far as the US counting system goes, we have never really been able to keep track of everything, so somehow I am not surprised that any are missing at all.

    Once again, I do not contend such. Believe me, for as often as I see people here using the "all" card to dismiss something and sweep it under the carpet, I'm not going to start using the same myself.

    I have not mentioned any amounts, great or small. I simply asked a question if it was possible that terrorists stole weapons? Thousands of Iraqi soldiers have been killed. Thousands of convoys have been blown up. If terrorists are not stealing their ak-47s, then where are they getting them from?

    Again, why not just blame Bush and we can move on? After all, the Iraqi military shouldn't be held accountable. Terrorists shouldn't be held accountable. Let's demote a general, call for surrender and impeach Bush over it :rolleyes:

    It gives a lot of confidence to people on how this administration runs the war. After all, who need math and accounting when there is a Bible? :rolleyes:

    Yep, gworld is jumping for joy that his buds have some weapons to kill the US soldiers he hates so much. So I don't see what he's crying about.

    At one time it was.. Now the AK is klunky, heavy and extremely cumbersome... Nice weapon, no doubt, and compared to the M-14 and M-16, yes, it was superior weapon in many respects. Today, it's old, and cheap and readily available, hence the reason it was probably supplied..

    And there we have it. gworld finally comes out with the truth about why he started the thread. See, that wasn't so difficult, Keith?

    Of course, he'd never say that about the quran used by his buds over there to kill the US soldiers he hates so much. Nope, not a peep on that quran ;) I love watching gworld's supposed "atheist" hypocrisy!
