1. We secured hundreds of thousands of tons of explosives. This is a drop in the bucket. Yes, it's bad that they've gone missing, but keep some perspective.

2. More likely than not, these explosives are over the border into Syria, like most of the rest of the stuff. We can't get it back from Syria.

3. You were opposed to the war to begin with. Between 1998 and 1/03, 35 tons of the same stuff went missing from the same place, according to the IAEA. Saddam was moving it, using it, giving it away, nobody knows. If you had your way he'd still be doing that.

4. Hamzaa, Saddam's bombmaker, says that Saddam had another 300 tons hidden away from the inspectors to begin with. If you had your way, he still would.
