#1 I know I have mentioned it before, but the East Timor army is made up of former guerillas, mostly from the eastern part of the nation.

They have a reputation for a deliberately- cultivated lack of discipline.

This was another example of sheer stupidity on the part of the UN.

#4 The officer blamed the senior UN police commander in Dili, Saif Malik from Pakistan, for the carnage.

A Pak marching to beat of his own jihad?
