Too bad this person had such a rough time. My guess is security. FWIW, the President and lovely Laura, the Rummies and Condi went to the concert. We had lovely pics on the Dose, and the story was well covered on last night's TV news. I even read of the Iraqi orchestra visit in advance in the lil ol' Finger Lakes Times.

Not real security, but the class of security so perfectly instantiated by the TSA's gormless screeners. "Let's look like we're doing something." Sham security, empty security, Potemkin security.

Saddam's stooges have bigger worries than a gang of music lovers. (If the paintings they hung in their homes were anything to go by, Saddam and family's tastes didn't have the range to appreciate a symphony).

d.o.l.
