Those slime doing this trash while our fighting men & women must get toilet paper from home The Big Mess in Rumsfeld’s Attic -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- By Diana Ray ray@insightmag.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Defense Department’s financial records and methods of inventory control are in terrible disarray, and it’s up to Defense Secretary Rumsfeld to set the house in order. Just the thought of monitoring $1 trillion in assets might set off a major headache. But that is a headache the Department of Defense (DoD) deals with every day. And indeed it has become a major-league pain. Consider the following: The General Accounting Office (GAO) has found that weapons stolen from Army bases moved through an arms supplier into the hands of members of the Branch Davidian cult [see news alert!, July 24, 1995]. Insight has revealed that Air Force cargo planes fell into the hands of Mexican drug lords. A $1.3 million battle tank was donated to a private citizen who claimed, falsely as it turned out, to represent a Veterans of Foreign Wars post. The tank wasn’t even demilitarized, according to a recent press release from the office of Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa.(cont) insightmag.com
