From BBC.co.uk (you knew it was only a matter of time before they started slinging mud):
The BBC's Susannah Price reports from Baghdad "The UN knew it was a target... it had tried very hard to distance itself from the American operation"

She's probably correct in this. Just goes to show that nice intentions mean little when the other guy's willing to die to get you killed.

It always amazes me that some folks are always willing to believe that a nice demonstration of trust on their part will somehow convince the bad guys to suddenly play nice.

Actually that doesn't help their spin .. it makes it sound like the UN knew and yet didn't nothing to protect themselves from an attack like today.
