Cannon fodder by any other name. Too bad their organs can't be harvested first so they would actually do some good before they blow themselves up.

"That is ridiculous," said Ken Nichols O'Keefe, a 33-year-old gulf war Marine veteran who initiated the idea. "They are not using me. I am here voluntarily. What is Saddam Hussein supposed to say? `No, they can't do it'? "That would be treason, except that O'Keefe has already renounced his U.S. citizenship.
Earlier this month, Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz said the foreign volunteers were welcome. "They should come and set themselves up around places that we need to survive, to aid civil defense," he said.
And that is a very clear violation of the Geneva Convention.

These human shields will dirty their diapers and quietly scurry away when the first bomb hits. I can't see the problem if some of them get killed - fewer parasites coming back to us.

One American peace advocate recalled a typical march where the Westerners were chanting antiwar slogans and were suddenly joined by dozens of Iraqis hoisting pictures of Mr. Hussein. "It changed the spirit of the march," said a recent college graduate who is one of the volunteers. "That wasn't what we expected." I wonder if "changing the spirit" is code for "revealed our true intentions"?

The number of human shields remain fluid.... They run in, they run back out...
This article is priceless. Nothing like a brush with the real 3rd world to focus the heretofore unused mental processes.

Do these idiots really think that Saddam will allow them to be stationed in sensitive areas like power plants? Really now, what's to prevent some US Special Forces personnel from "volunteering" as human shields and then sabotaging the site that they're shielding? That's the way I would think if I was in charge of where the Iraqi's are allowing them to go.

"Too bad their organs can't be harvested first so they would actually do some good before they blow themselves up."Think we could maybe "volunteer" some others? Someone had a list of all those Hollywierd peaceniks...shouldn't they be thinking of putting their lives where their (big) mouths are?

There is so much Bravo Sierra in these two comments:

When the Iraqis who want to be free start using these Panty Shields for Soddomite as targets, they will dwindle in numbers very rapidly.
These clymers are not for peace. They are enablers of a mass murdering group of Islamofacist thugs. This is not lost on the Iraqis who want to be free from Soddomite and his thugs.
