From TPM:
You know how it is: clerical errors lead to thousands of missing weapons. Top commander in Iraq General David Petraeus said thousands of weapons meant for Iraqi security forces have been unaccounted for because of “bookkeeping deficiencies.” Tracking the weapons’ serial numbers were not of the greatest concern in 2004 and 2005 when priority was to provide weapons to Iraqi security forces, according to Petraeus. Of course, looking back, it might have been useful considering many officials fear these U.S.-issued weapons are being used now against American forces. (WaPo)

Now this is the idiot and liar we are waiting for to give us an up date on Iraq. With the mistakes he makes you'd say mission completed we won, but we have to stay and let thousands more soldiers die before he's finished. General Petraeus is just another General lying for the White House. Now thanks to the so called super General the Iraq enemy now has enough weapons, vest and bullets to last a long long time.
Bush will pick another General suck up and say this is the man who can do the job let's give him the time he needs.
