#2 I wonder if somewhere in the Pentagon, a Brigadier is desperately trying to find the US contigency plan for a Chilean-Syrian war.

#6 Moose, it's some CWO at the request of a BG.

Since they were in the same building, it was an "accident".

#7 Was this the embassy where they set fire to the first floor, then worked their way up, floor by floor, till they found thenselves trapped on top of a burning building?

#11 Makes complete sense. They are obviously protesting the "secret" CIA and German BND terrorist detention center of Colonia Dignidad near Santiago. Who did the leak?

#13 Perhaps they confused Chile's flag as being some variation of the American flag? It is red, white, and blue with a star and stripes.

#14 Embassies are in the same building. Really hard for a fire to seperate out the two.

Probably seemed pretty safe sharing an embassy with the Danish. Lot safer than sharing one with the US. Funny how things work out some times.

I'm actually kind of surprised that there isn't a seperate compound filled with Latin American embassies. Sort of like the western compounds found in Saudi Arabia but one that would be filled with Salsa dancing and rum swilling huddled together for mutual defense, convenience, and party. Yeah, you gringos are always trying to slip under the fence and get in, but no Tequila for you!

Would that be wise, rjschwarz? These are the same people who have, within living memory, had shooting wars over soccer games. ;-)
