Missing Antiaircraft Missiles Alarm Aides

Several thousand shoulder-fired missiles -- the kind that could be used to shoot down aircraft -- are missing in Iraq, and their disappearance has prompted U.S. military and intelligence analysts to increase sharply their estimate of the number of such weapons that may be at large, administration officials said yesterday.

Some U.S. analysts figure that as many as 4,000 surface-to-air missiles once under the control of Saddam Hussein's government remain unaccounted for. That would raise the number of such missiles outside government hands worldwide to about 6,000.

1. Maybe the insurgents igetting ready to give us all a

BIG XMAS PRESENT. WMD don't scare me as much as this SH*T does. They sell for less than $5000K on the open market and I'm sure all 4000 are now in enemy hands.

Don't you fell safe with Bushit in the White House?

2. This is crazy, and my newspaper put this article

on the 4 page in. The first story on the front page was about the moose problem in New York(as an aside, is the plural of moose, meese?).

5. (Sigh) I'm not shocked any more. I'm really not! Maybe something bad

has to happen to us again for the sheeple to finally wake up and realize how incompetent this chimp is! Don't look to the media to cover this, so it's only us getting this news! Something will have to happen to us before the sheeple will ask the chimp why?

6. If something bad happened to us again (god forbid)

then Smirk would see it as another opportunity to strut around and "be presidential"---nevermind that his inept Administration failed to take precautionary measures in the first place.

15. we need to get a handle on these quick

We need to get a law passed pronto to have these banned before someone shoots down an airliner. And the Fatherland Security has guaranteed us that these things won't make it into the US like all the grass that the 'War on Drugs' kept out. :smoke: I'm flying to Mexico for a now much needed vacation from next week and sure hope that I don't end up as collateral damage in this 'War on Terrorism'!
:scared:

The NRA is probably going to fight this law since it violates their precious Second Amendment.:puke:

The Mujahadeen just love to shoot down airplanes. bushco will break this country fighting this war just like the USSR fighting the Afghans.
