99 Tons. That is a outrageous amount of weapons. A minimum of 4 planeloads lost? Anyone who knows the Military, knows that the one thing they do in a anal fashion is flight records. The who what where and when a plane takes off and lands is documented up the wahzoo. Knowing this to be true, where did 99 Tons of weapons scheduled to land in Baghdad really land ? No one seems to know.
When the U.S. government needed to fly four planeloads of seized weapons from an American base in Bosnia to Iraqi security forces in Baghdad in August 2004, they used a Moldovan air cargo firm tied to Bout's aviation empire. The problem is that the planes apparently never arrived. When Amnesty International investigators tried two years later to trace the shipment of more than 99 tons of AK-47s and other weapons, U.S. officials admitted they had no record of the flights landing in Baghdad.
