#2 Why wasn't that sort of thing done during construction? Its is not as if the high-risk areas haven't always been high-risk.

Didn't we learn anything during the Boxer rebellion? Embassies should be within well defended foreign compounds in this unstable nations. They should also put embassies in coastal cities or near the boarder when required. No need to be in the Capital far inland if that means you can't get help. Convenience be damned.
