Yeah, what a great achievement, huh?! Even the "heavily fortified" Green Zone is now not safe. You Dumbyassholes deserve all the credit.

You Dumbyassholes are so result-oriented and capable! LOL! Baghdad's Green Zone no longer an oasis of security THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Article Last Updated: 05/10/2007 11:02:55 AM EDT BAGHDAD -- A sharp increase in mortar attacks on the Green Zone -- the one-time oasis of security in Iraq's turbulent capital -- has prompted the U.S. Embassy to issue a strict new order telling all employees to wear flak vests and helmets while in unprotected buildings or whenever they are outside. The order, obtained by The Associated Press, has created a siege mentality among U.S. staff inside the zone after a recent suicide attack on parliament. It has also led to new fears about long-term safety in the place where the U.S. government is building a massive and expensive new embassy. The situation is a sharp turnaround for the heavily guarded zone -- long viewed as the safest corner of Baghdad with its shops, restaurants, American fast-food outlets and key Iraqi and U.S. government offices.
