Re your post No. 8 - I would hate to think that any military personnel would have to be put in harms way to rescue these idiots. Let them die.

Who exactly would support the human sandbags? They'd be despised by the Iraqi troops, they'd be despised by the Iraqi people once Saddam fell, they'd be despised by the Allied troops, they'd be despised by the Kurds, they'd be despised by the Lefties who will be forced to quickly disavow any relations to them once a popular victory is achieved... they're worse than sandbags, they're murderous-dictator-enabling sandbags.
