#1 Was going to post this one myself. Interesting passage from the BBC's coverage:

"This I can categorically deny. What we have done is just the opposite. We have demobilised more than 20,000. We have taken in caches of arms. We have destroyed arms. We have done public burnings of these arms. And there is absolutely nothing to that allegation."

Where is the mountain of charred gun barrels? I'd say there was some "recycling" going on.
