In a country 'bombed back to a pre-industrial age for a considerable time to come', according to the UN Special Rapporteur who visited in March 1991, Iraq paid for the UN there. Whilst cable for telephones was vetoed, bricks, glass (factories bombed) car parts vetoed (cars became death traps) computers, access to the outside world in fact, the Canal was indeed a haven for the 'frazzled'.
