The Mega-Bunker of Baghdad


The new American Embassy in Baghdad will be the largest, least welcoming, and most lavish embassy in the world: a $600 million massively fortified compound with 619 blast-resistant apartments and a food court fit for a shopping mall.

[Edit. Scratch the $600 million figure......its now approaching $1 billion.]
