GAO: Iraq munitions looting widespread

http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/politics/4652933.html
"Explosives looted from Iraq munitions sites will likely continue to support terrorist attacks throughout the region, a congressional report said Thursday, finding that some sites were still not secured more than three and a half years after the war started."

It is this looting that is what goes to making roadside bombs, this article states, and it could be a serious problem. I think that this is one of the major problems, as it is a contributer to the insurgents ability to create such items of destruction.

"Explosives looted from Iraq munitions sites will likely continue to support terrorist attacks throughout the region, a congressional report said Thursday, finding that some sites were still not secured more than three and a half years after the war started." This may not be good enough, and i think that maybe this statement could be a cover up for their mistake of allowing the looting.
