Boo -
Assuming it is accurate that the explosives were looted post-April 9th, it is HIGHLY likely that this is a Department of Defense fuckup, which makes it a Bush administration fuckup. Not a military fuckup.
Scott McCellan has gone on record stating that there was a priority to protect the oil fields and as such there were not enough troops to protect other areas. This type of decision comes from civilian commanders, not military officers. No military officer in their right mind is going to leave an unsecured explosives depot in order to protect an oil field, particularly during combat operations, without having been issued a directive from the DoD which overrode their common sense.
