The US blew Iraq to bits with a massive bombing campaign... I thought

"Sumptuous US embassy in Baghdad sets records"
ON THE west bank of the Tigris, at the edge of Baghdad's heavily
fortified
Green Zone, a forest of cranes marks the progress of Iraq's newest
monument:
a US embassy that will be the largest in the world.
Once an army of more than 3500 workers have completed construction
next
June, the vast site will be the hub of the American administration in
Iraq.
Protected by five-metre-thick walls and ringed by military guards, it
signals the seriousness of America's intentions to retain a large and
long-term presence.
The $A790 million building's existence is meant to be a secret. But it
is
impossible to hide a complex that will be the size of Vatican City and
have
the population of a small town, especially when it is lit up at night
to
enable work to go on 24 hours a day...
