1. That embassy sure looks exposed
I hear it's built like a fortress, but they put it on the side of the hill, and some buildings get to look OVER the embassy grounds. Plus they got nobody checking the cars going into the outer parking lot (the one they don't let you park in unless you're a US citizen).
