You will be disappointed. More likely the UN and various other neutral aid providers will pull out as they are increasingly targeted.

Maybe so.. But what kind of signal will the UN be sending to terrorists around the world?

Bomb us and we're "bye-bye"?

It's one thing to attack UN workers, but quite another to attack their "elite" officials.

I may be wrong, but I think the UN will step up support of the US, rather than continuing to advance their previous agenda of taking over complete control of the Iraqi situation.

But I don't see Annan showing his "backside" in Iraq after such a major attack. It would suggest that no future UN "nation building" operation could possibly succeed.
