Agreed it was against the UN, who, ironically, didn't support the war. Either these are some really stupid Iraqis, or someone else (Al Qaeda) did this.

CNN isn't on this story. Don't know if they've reported it yet or just moved on to something else.

The UN types know what Israel is up against with the Palestinian wackos. They've known for years. The problem is that they don't care. After all, what's in Israel but a bunch of Jews. (And that attitude is enough to make my blood boil)
To: Peach
the question is - was Bremer or some US VIP there at the time or is this really an anti-UN move.

CNN isn't on this story. Don't know if they've reported it yet or just moved on to something else. They're still talking about 16 words in the State of the Union speech. . . . .

Our borders have nothing to do with this discussion. You changed the subject, and that's bait I just won't bite.
BTW, if you did a little research, you'd know where my position is on the subject of our borders.

Or maybe it was the Iraqi's thanking the UN for their strong support of the US getting rid of Saddam.

Good question. Let's hope Bremer wasn't there.

Thsi is a strike against the UN ................
My take is it's strike against whoever has the worst security measures on 8/19/2003. A timely reminder for us to tighten up against car bombs....... (right now reports are saying it's car bomb)

This is a very typical Al Queda type attack, unfortunately. Large car or truck bomb where many civilians can be killed. Clearly, they are in Iraq.

Do we know yet whether this was a suicide bomber or was it a remote detonation?

It certainly looks like a car or truck bomb. The pictures are devastating.
