Is the $100M's missing, and the unaccounted for $2.3T under Cheney/Bush/Rumsfeld from 2001-08 a bigger mystery than Building 7?

By now, everyone show be aware of Rumsfeld's claim just 24 hours prior to 9/11 - that 'the Pentagon was unable to account for $2.3T.' And the following day, a huge airliner disintegrated on impact (???), although not w/o first destroying the computerized accounting section. And like Building 7, no official report has been issued regarding investigations into either!

Adding insult to injury, in what "has been called the largest airborne transfer of currency in the history of the world," of $40B in US currency shipped to Iraq, "....what happened to all the money involved has become one of the biggest financial mysteries of all time."

Update 2:

@ Mark F: Really?

"Twenty years ago, Department of Defense Analyst Franklin C. Spinney made headlines exposing what he calls the "accounting games." He's still there, and although he does not speak for the Pentagon, he believes the problem has gotten worse.

'"Those numbers are pie in the sky. The books are cooked routinely year after year,"' he said."

(How's that for a "CT"?)

    Well, you should be aware that the "missing $2.3 trillion" was a relic from the 1990's which had been actively and repeatedly reported on for about 18 months prior to 9/11. It didn't just appear out of the ether on 9/10/2001.

    If you got your information from places other than conspiracy nutter web sites you would know that.

    Also, if you got your information from places other than conspiracy nutter web sites you would know that the money - equivalent to roughly the entire DoD budget for 6 years - didn't simply walk away. It was a tracking problem due to outdated and incompatible accounting systems.

    Also, if you got your information from places other than conspiracy nutter web sites you would know that there are 45 different accounting offices in the Pentagon, all of which were involved and only one of which was damaged in the 9/11 attacks.

    Now then, if you are going to make an accusation grow a pair and make it. Stop with this lie-by-innunedo and implication crap. Poop or get off the pot already.

    You gutless, spineless, mindless CT's who lack the stones to say what you actually mean are getting rather old.

    ***EDIT***

    Context man. What Spinney is talking about is a separate issue, although it is curious you seem to be admitting now you were wrong about Rummy suddenly coming forward with this for the first time on 9/10/01
