[US Commerce Secretary Don] Evans, traveling under heavy guard, insisted Iraq was safer than most people believed. "This is not the dismal, frightened area I expected to see having watched the news coverage in the United States over the past six months," he said.Yes... Iraq is so safe that Evans doesn't actually need that heavy guard when he's wandering around. He just likes being surrounded by men in uniform, no doubt.
He dismissed incidents such as recent car bombings in a country where American occupying forces are under daily attack as "isolated acts of terrorism."
