داخل العمل

[Feuer Frei!]

The title means 'Inside Job' in Arabic.
And it seems this following story was exactly that:

Kuwait has reported the theft of a massive amount of
U.S. weapons.
The Interior Ministry said thieves broke into a warehouse and stole a
huge amount of firearms and ammunition. The ministry said 20,000 U.S.-origin M-16 assault rifles and 15,000 rounds for 9mm pistols were stolen.
“There were no guards during the break-in,” the ministry said on April
7.

Well, there IS a 9mm shortage in the US, makes sense that people would have to shop elsewhere...

20.000 rifles....yeah, takes five minutes to load them in a truck....and nobody will notice...:shifty:

M16s aren't the weapon of choice by the Arab on the street. And do you think they thought the 9mm ammo was for the M16s? :hmm2:

Gee wonder who it could have been stolen for...

Nah...if it were razor blades or soap that had been stolen then maybe.

Actually there are at least several thousand M-16s originally sold to Lebanon back in the day.These are often used by the Palestinian authority and various groups in Palestine.One group the al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade features two M-16s crossed above the "Dome of the Rock" (aka Al-Aqsa Mosque) in their flag.

They would also be very useful to any terror group in South East Asia.Abu Saif primarily uses M-16s and any group in Indonesia find m-16s useful would seeing as the Indonesian military uses either M-16s or Austeyr F-88s.Best to use a the weapon that your enemy uses if you have no other reliable source.In both Iraq and Afghanistan AKs are readily available thanks to the Soviets.In Iraq of course they where used because there the Iraqi military used them.
