Lost weapons in Iraq

How does this even happen? How does the U.S. Government just lose 110,000 AK-47 rifles, 80,000 pistols and 250,000 pieces of body armor and helmets in hostile territory? It also looks like we're missing heavy machine guns and rocket propelled grenades. This article says we don't know where close to 500,000 weapons are. Oops. 500,000 weapons is enough to outfit a very large army. One that could easily overpower our troops.

Are we trying to screw this up even more than it's already been screwed up? Or was this whole "attack" a clever ruse to supply yet another third world country with weapons that will eventually bit us in the ass?
