I saw a Frontline report on "the insurgency" (and it had an interview with an Australian journalist for Time who spends time 'underground' with the terrorists).

Among the journalists they interviewed was one who survived a hotel bombing by taking the precaution of removing the glass windows and replacing them with plastic (plexiglass?).

Why don't more public buildings consider this precaution? It doesn't do anything to stop the brick from flying but it does considerably reduce shrapnel.
