Colonel cites capture of Iraqi depot and missing explosives
Col Dave Perkins, commander of the 2nd Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division, says it is highly improbable that 377 tons of explosives could have been moved after U S forces arrived near the Al Qaqaa facility. He notes heavy traffic along nearby roads in weeks after April 3 2003 and says large scale looting would have been detected. The Pentagon and campaigns debate who is responsible for the missing ordnance.

Iraqi Explosives Missing At Al Qaqaa Facility
Iraqi officials told the U N I A E A two weeks ago that explosives vanished from the Al Qaqaa installation due to theft and looting after coalition forces took Baghdad. Nuclear inspectors had sealed bunkers in January 2003 and last visited March 15, reporting intact seals before the March 20 invasion.
