Well, god forbid the U.S. should ever get involved in a "real" war. Seems we don't have enough manufacturing capacity to keep up with the demand for bullets being expended in Iraq and Afghanistan. No, to make up for the shortage, we're importing ammunition from Israel.
So not only is our military over-extended, so are our bullet makers. Oh, the number of bullets required for every "insurgent" killed? Estimates are 1/4 million bullets for each (yes, as in 250,000 per!). That's either a lot of wasted ammo, bad marksmanship, or some very, very dead insurgents.
Which brings up a point: Dada wonders if anyone's recycling dead Iraqis to recover the lead?
