I believe C~I~A was behind this attack, because UN commandor in Iraq, Sergio Vieira had condemned this occupation war and he had alerted the international communauty of babarrian commit by US to Iraqis people, that was exactly US government didn't want the world to know. That why C~I~A was be dehind this bomb attack and forced UN mission end in Iraq.

Character Lionel on *The Jeffersons* was son of George & Louise & an engineer by training. Meredith vieIRA has surname vieiRA & George W. Bush is commonly called W. Take Bushs W, move it between E & I in vieIRA for VIEWira. Now it begins reminding of the program she moderated from 1997-2006 on ABC television, The VIEW. Of course, as it relates to IRAq, troop surge is a construct introduced during the Bush administration, but unrelated to SERGio vieIRA, which begins sounding SURGE.
