The point is that the unfolding evidence suggests your concern is misplaced.

Misplaced? Apparently not... as yet another party with direct knowledge of events contributes to the picture:

"The officials that were inside this facility (Al-Qaqaa) beforehand confirm that not even a shred of paper left it before the fall and I spoke to them about it and they even issued certified statements to this effect which the US-led coalition was aware of."

He said officials at Al-Qaqaa, including its general director, whom he refused to name, made contact with US troops before the fall in an effort to get them to provide security for the site.


This ties in with everything I've been saying. The location of these materials was known before hand. And there was no plan to secure them and now we learn that requests for security apparently went unheeded...
