U.S. raids turn up few weapons


iconCNN reports that U.S. raids have turned up "a number" of weapons and ammunition. Am I the only one that thinks this "number" is a bit on the small side?

The article cites a raid on one house that contained "two AK-47s, 11 bayonets, more than 550 rounds of ammunition, two protective masks, 31 protective mask canisters, three swords, two axes and documents." Uh oh. Better look out for those documents, canisters and bayonets. Another raid turned up "500 ammunition rounds, 10 loaded AK-47 magazines and one rocket-propelled grenade".

While you could argue that the RPG is some pretty serious hardware, a few hundred rounds and 10 loaded mags are inconsequential. If I sent out my soldiers, and they came back with a measley RPG, two rifles, and a trunk full of crap I'd be more than slightly disappointed.

Without the RPGs, you'd find more than that in MY house, for damn sure.
