PA: Bombed in Baghdad
The Palestine National Authority, following the lead of many of its citizens who have long protested in favor of Saddam and against the U.S., condemned the "U.S. aggressionâ of yesterday. American fighter jets bombed the PA's embassy in Baghdad yesterday afternoon. âThe US aggression on the embassy was premeditated and directly singled out the Palestinian embassy, which is located in the diplomatic neighborhood in the Iraqi capital,â a PNA official spokesman said today. âNo other embassies were targeted by bombing, which proves that the targeting of the Palestinian embassy was premeditated and not an accident." The spokesman noted that the building's roof was destroyed, as were all its contents and assets. He continued his attack on the American strike by calling it âa flagrant violation of all diplomatic norms and laws, which endow foreign embassies with immunity...""Dammit, we're the only ones allowed to bomb embassies!"
