The International Herald Tribune article is titled "Hopes for new armored vehicle questioned after Iraq blast."
Hope are questioned? In what world do people hope an armored truck can withstand large explosions? Tanks can be destroyed, people. Even MRAPs can be destroyed. They are simply resistant to common land mines.
I'll admit the text of the article isn't as dense as the title. What is it with editors? They're worse than their reporters.
