<<To scare off the UN from increasing its activities and undermining the credibility of the insurgency against Coalition forces.>>

This one may have backfired. I heard a list of countries that will become involved and it's close to 30 and growing.

Hawk, since the U.N. refused protection from American troops it was an easy target.

The U.N. official who refused to allow U.S. troops to protect the facility is culpable. I wonder who that person is? I wonder if it was the Secretary General himself?

Questions I haven't seen asked in the media.
