Where is Wallie when you need him, this deserves a drawing..... There are 20,000 missing shoulder fired anti-aircraft missiles floating around someplace in the desert. How do you hide 20,000 missiles to steal them? Stuff them in your shorts?

A survey of weapon depots in Libya shows that up to 20,000 shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles are now missing,

    I imagine a few will ride some fishing boat up to Marseille. A few to Somalia, maybe a few to Palestine, and a bunch to Lebanon.
    Air travel might be not such a good idea for awhile.

    Al Qaeda leader Abdel Hakim Belhadj, is now the military governor of "liberated" Tripoli.

    Who were the the insurgents in Iraq?

    "20,000 missiles are missing-

    The U.S. "Had no boots on the ground" (yea right [;)] early denial for the above because it was planned).

    Just think of operation "Fast and Furious" on a larger scale in N. Africa. You can almost write down play by play what will happen next
    in North Africa without thinking very much.

    Here is some of Saddam's junk just after the start of the Iraq war.

    My son was looking for Saddam's crap, but he said it was like putting a half dozen guys searching the state of Texas. He said you could hear the Iraqis looting in the backs of the buildings they were searching. The Iraqis would loot any thing metal. The flatbed in the last picture has a fully actified missle, leaking oxidizer. The thieves had blocked the flatbed up, then dug under the wheels and stole the axles.
