Attack on UN in Baghdad or How stupid can we be?? Once again a central command post is set up without a perimeter defense, like fences or walls. Jesus, is anybody in charge anywhere? AFTER the bombing somebody thinks about it. I just can't believe it. Add: late afternoon; 4PM PDT Newscasts have just announced that it was the UN that refused U.S. offers to secure the perimiter. They wanted to present a "friendly face". OK, they did. Now it's a friendly dead face.
