2. Lessee...there's loads of Russian, Chinese, Czech...and even some 'Merican
weapons lying about, too. Should we invade them, too? Oh wait, they might actually put up a fight.

7. I think some people have missed the significance of "shaped charges"
Such devices prove that the insurgency is far more sophisticated than a bunch of pissed off "dead enders".

As for the "professionally made" explosives, what happened to the 300 tons of nuclear weapons grade explosives that the US left unguarded. That particular explosive compund is one of, if not the most powerful explosive around.

That is probably what has been used to make these "shaped charges" because that is what it is designed for, and the Iranians didnt give it to them.
