The second means that all traffic has to traverse your LAN to get to the
'Unprotected' DMZ systems and also could leave your internal LAN open to
attack.

My ASCII drawing didn't come out very well it was supposed to represent a tri-homed firewall, which, to the best of my knowledge is just as secure as a two firewall setup.
