More Islamic madness�

Why in the world would anyone go after the UN?
I can think of two reasons. The obvious explanation is that the Iraqi terrorists are stupid and cannot distinguish between the different foreign agencies in town -- so they targeted the least-defended one. The less likely reason is that they want more UN involvement and aid to Iraq � precisely what is likely to be the outcome of the bombing. With all due respect for the dead, the bombing is the best thing that could have happened to the UN from the perspective of its supporters � it has given the UN a relevance they have been desperate for since the war started.

In other news, how many innocent civilians have to die before the �cease-fire� is officially over?
