Default Do the math

Take the alleged total number of tons of munitions, divide by the largest cargo carrier truck type available in quantity in Iraq, and see how long the convoy would have been to haul all this crap out of country, which is what the Russian Special Ops people did, with the active involvement of the Iraqi Army. This covert ops was accomplished before the Coalition invasion of Iraq, so of course, the "missing" tonnage is a matter of liberal hand-wringing.

If transporting of these munitions had been attempted after the invasion, the massed truck convoy would have been spotted and dealt with, but POOF, the movement had long since been done prior to our arrival.

It is also a matter of more than passing curiosity that the "document" announcing the munitions emanated from the UN, that bulwark of integrity, accounting expertise, and international accomplishments in arms control. Naturally, the New Yawk Times, paragon of journalist slanting, forgery and Jayson Blairisms, picks up the story, showing the world once again that Ol' Grey Lady shouldn't be trusted with much other than lining the bottom of the bird cage.
