It's not expensive over there. Seriously, you can get one for a few dollars off a street vendor. No questions asked.

AK 47s is Iraq can be purchased for as little as $25 each. The ammunition id dirt cheap as well. Ammunition for an AK 47 can be purchased in Iraq for as little as $10 per 1,000 rounds. Also the Muslim Terrorists are funded by Iran which gets Billions of dollars per year for oil exports. Much of the money that Iran gets for oil exports is used to fund Muslim Terrorists all over the world instead of being used ofr the benefit of the Iranian people in Iran. Iran funds over 90% of the Muslim Terrorism in the world with Billions of Dollars from oil exports. .

because they're provided by organized terrorist groups, which get money and equipment from states such as Iran, Syria, North Korea, etc.

They are getting them from Iran - when Regan, Ollie North et.al. sold them in the 80's. So we are fighting our own weapons and technology. That was a smooth move, isn't it???

They get them from Iran. The militia's are supported by the Iran revolutionary guard.

You think someone could be supplying the weapons? Like that has never happened.

They must load their own bullets too. That isn't cheap either, but less expensive than buying them.

They have oil, and lots of it.

Naive? The Soviets used to sprinkle them on the ground like perennials in some countries.

AK-47s are dirt cheap in Iraq. When the Iraqi army dissolved in 2003 all of those rifles wound up in the bazaars and you could literally pick one up for 5 or 10 dollars. BTW - are you aware that the going price for an AK-47 in the international arms market is about $50 (in bulk)?

The trickle down theory in their economy is Free Weapons, and little money. The Government officials have free weapons to give, but keep the foreign aid (money)

They didnt have a central bank and inflation. Guess what they got one now. Wonder if there is any relation........

They buy them from "Lord of War" types and commonly work for militant groups that pay for them. They also trade drugs, their women, their children and other goods for weapons. Not to mention, they pull them out of the hands of dead soldiers from their side and the other.

That's because they DON"T live on a dollar a day.Its impossible, except maybe in the villages where they might be self-sufficient, but most of the time, not even then. They say the same thing about Africans, too, just to make you Westerners feel smug. I'm glad some body's started to ask questions at last.

Uh, people don't EAT AK 47s; it's a one-time purchase many made some time ago. Dunno what RPGs are. Because Bush refused to listen to reason and send enough troops, there were warehouses of ammo and explosive materials unprotected. Since Bush had the army fired, a lot of them emptied those warehouses.
