The facts are that the explosives were there when we invaded and are not there now..... They were sealed by the UN, Bush tossed the UN out, and they were missing sometime after the invasion. The 101st Airborne was the first on the scene and their spokesman said they did not search the site.....they only stayed over night and saw no reason to inspect yet another ammo dump that they had already seen dozens of. Their mission was to get to Baghdad...

If you have some link that shows that the stuff was unequivocally missing when they got there, post it. It was also well recorded during the war that many munitions sites were not being guarded because they were too large and we couldn't spare the troops to do it.
