98. I would not put it pass them
Edited on Tue Aug-19-03 06:42 PM by vision
The UN delegation leader was exactly the type that the present US administration would not want active in Iraq. This guy was a go-getter and a peacemaker that talked about bring parties together and making Iraq independant as quickly as possible. That is not exactly the goal of Bush IMO. I doubt that they want to loose control of Iraq anytime soon and espicially having an independant Iraq.

Does the US control the highways? How did a large truck loaded with explosives get into the city to begin with? And as always, follow the money. Who benefits?

The UN was/is providing food to Iraq. This violence could cause them to retract and than Iraq will have to depend more and more on the US and become dependant to us. More oil will have to be sold to make up the difference in lost aid and this will bring more profit to US oil companies.

It could have been Iraqis that did this but I would not think that the UN would be the most likely target. It could have be Al'Quida but I don't think they have enough of a prescence to do this yet.

I just don't trust the present adminstration and I put nothing past them.
