Following the new GOP talking point, I would turn the question around and ask them, do you want to win the war in Iraq?

The answers came Sunday from the inspector general’s office, which found major discrepancies in American military records on where thousands of 9-millimeter pistols and hundreds of assault rifles and other weapons have ended up. The American military did not even take the elementary step of recording the serial numbers of nearly half a million weapons provided to Iraqis, the inspector general found, making it impossible to track or identify any that might be in the wrong hands.

Exactly where untracked weapons could end up — and whether some have been used against American soldiers — were not examined in the report, although black-market arms dealers thrive on the streets of Baghdad, and official Iraq Army and police uniforms can easily be purchased as well, presumably because government shipments are intercepted or otherwise corrupted.

So not only have we effectively inserted ourselves as a causal factor in recruiting insurgency foot soldiers, but now we’re arming them?  With our own weapons?  That they can use against us? 

Unbelievable.
