I love this quote:

"Of course we don't understand why somebody would attack the Red Cross," ICRC spokeswoman Nada Doumani tells the AP. "The Red Cross has operated in this country since 1980, and we have not been involved in politics."

Yeah, it's not like all those plane passengers and occupants of the World Trade Center who were, uh, . . . what was it again that they were doing to harm Islam? For that matter, what is it that made the bombers want to kill so many of their fellow Iraqis, Miss Doumani?

The L. A. Times clarifies it for us. It was a publicity stunt, "designed to grab attention by flaunting their ability to inflict casualties." Oh, well then, never mind.
