I think we should hold off on bombing Iraq until the last human shield has gotten cranky and tired and leaves. That will make teasing the shields all the more fun as we kick Iraq's butt.

Some wear T-shirts imprinted with "Human Shield" in Arabic.... I think we need Registered's services to design a "Human Shield" T-Shirt.

"Most schools and hospitals have their own generators. And the water purification plants only serve the rich 40-percent of the population," she said. "That changed my mind."
Okay, so... she only believes that poor Iraqi citizens deserve protection. Or, could it be, she actually thought she might be targeted, on top of the water purification plant? So, she is an a liberal who only believes that the poor deserve protection, and a coward. Of course, it is AMERICA'S fault that she wasn't able to fulfill her desire to protect the masses. Iraq would never use human shields, now would they?

The shabby Saraya hotel in downtown Amman serves as an impromptu staging post for foreign activists deciding what to do next: stay out or go in.My money's on "stay out," what with the sitting around and sipping tea, and all.

To be effective, a group needs a catchy name -- preferrably one that forms a good acronym. For the human shield organization, I recommend:
Strategic Human Insertion Team: Fostering Obstruction, Resistance, & Barriers, Rejecting American Interests, & National Security.

They're so committed they're giving up on stopping the war before it even begins. LOL!!!

Don't these quitters realize that Saddam will now have to murder innocent Iraqis and leave the bodies around military targets so he can claim that they were killed by US weapons? By leaving to protect themselves, these human shields are mandating the deaths of hundreds of innocents. That simply isn't right!

Can't wait for the day after Saddam is eliminated and the Iraqi people start cheering the incoming GIs. At that point the shields will be the last vestiges of the Saddam regime and ought to be real popular on the streets of Baghdad.

I love these guys (and gals). They only want to be "shields" in those places they know the United States won't actually target. In other words, they ADMIT that the U.S. is possessed of sufficient moral fiber that we WON'T bomb innocent civilians.
But, asked to be a shield at any site which might be a legitimate target, they balk.
Let's recap: The "shields" only want to "protect" those targets which they know the U.S. will never target, thus avoiding any actual danger. Yet, the "shields" refuse to "protect" any site that actually might be bombed.
They aren't shields, they're shills.
I read one story where some shields camped out at a school or hospital (safe), and then Saddam had some troops move in and set up camp adjacent to the "shields'" camp (not safe). So the shields moved, abandoning the innocents located at the hospital (or school) they had wanted to protect.
But I guess we must all give them credit for wanting to be human shields, even though they lack the guts to actually be human shields. For the liberals, life is like a birthday present - it's the thought that counts.
