| Aswat al-Iraq: Iraqi police forces seized on Thursday a cache containing different kinds of munitions in eastern Baghdad, according to a security source. "Intelligence tip-offs by local residents have led a police force today (Jan. 8) to seizing amounts of heavy and light munitions hidden inside an abandoned house in al-Husseiniya neighborhood, eastern Baghdad," the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. "The munitions included mortar shells of 80 mm. caliber," the source added. |

| #3 They're always blowing it up where it lays though. They should do something more fun with it, like put it on a wheeled cart and roll it down a hill towards the mahdi army neighborhoods. |

| #2 There aren't enough secured warehouses in Iraq to store all the ammo that's been found since 2003. That doesn't necessarily mean the Iraqis shouldn't keep everything they find, but sometimes it's just not practical. It should be fireworks time again soon... |
