Errors May Have Inflated Iraq Arms Claims

<snip>A U.S. audit last year, for example, found the Pentagon (news - web sites) had lost track of more than 1 million chemical-biological protective suits, said Conetta, of the Project on Defense Alternatives, a private think tank.

In perhaps the most striking example, U.S. government auditors found in 1994 that almost three tons of plutonium, enough for hundreds of nuclear bombs, had "vanished" from U.S. stocks, because of discrepancies between "book inventory" and "physical inventory."

1. I have to admit, today has been the day where I have laughed the most

at DU.
What is what they say "People living in glass houses should not throw stones?"
What about the billion $$$ Rumsfeld cannot find in the Pentagon? Couldn't that have been used of WMD too?
