<US soldiers wounded as Iraqi troops open fire from Red Crescent ambulance>

If the UN had any integrity left, which it doesn't, it would publicly condemn these tactics.


1) Comments by such institutions never occur within hours after an event.

2) The UN hasn't commented on events like the following one, too:

U.S. Forces Kill Seven Iraqi Women, Kids
story.news.yahoo.com

3) HIGH COMMISSIONER REPEATS CALL ON PARTIES IN IRAQ TO RESPECT HUMAN RIGHTS, PROTECT CIVILIANS

4) If you belong to the people who believe that the UN has a negative bias towards the USA and Israel here is a recent counter example:

UN envoy condemns suicide bombing in Israel
