Sign held by Iraqis in Baghdad. Go Home Human Shields - You U.S. Wackos

[EternalVigilance]

I could be mistaken, but I think those ARE 'human shields', and they are going for their moment in the sun.

I was also watching some kind of skaggy leftists in the hotel haranguing our Marines...they make me sick!

You can hear the Saddam lovers yelling and screaming and crying, in a phony sort of way, too.

Skunks all.

The first official Iraqi Freepers in Free Iraq.

What's a Wanker?

What's a Wanker?

Well, I guess the U.S. translation would be "jerk-off".

[Nexus]

I can't believe I saw that! The new Iraqi government owes me a new keyboard!

[ProudGOP]

Is there a picture anywhere?

[kidd]

Wanker is a noun that means "jerk", in both senses of the word.

[bonesmccoy]

Looks like the REAL INSPECTORS have reached Baghdad's Time Square.

The only people getting upset is the "press". I just saw some lady pointing a finger at our troops and yelling (she was clearly a member of the press and emerging from the Palestine Hotel).

The woman doesn't stop to realize that WE ARE the reason she can point her finger.

It's called "Stockholm Syndrome". People who are held under duress may end up "loving" her abuser. The world press reminds me of a massive group of people with Stockholm. They love the very people who are clearly causing the fighting and abusing the world press (forcing them to remain muzzled and unable to report much of the story). Yet, when faced with their moment of freedom, they point their finger at the individuals granting their freedom and they protest.

Amazing to see the psychology in action...

"Wank" is brit slang for masturbating.

A wanker is a stupid, ineffectual jerk.

Someone please screen capture for the cubicle-and-firewall bound!!!

[egarvue]

"Wanker" is British slang...technically, "wanking" means masturb...well, you get the picture. The term "wanker" is used mostly like the American "a$$hole". The Iraqi guys are right - the human shields ARE wankers.

[legman]

Has anyone else had tears swell up in their eyes?

[headsonpikes]

I wonder if they're FReepers?

[Beck_isright]

My favorite sign so far!!! It does say it all!!!

Thanks. You gotta love it.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Everytime I replay GWB's post 9/11 speech on seeking out terrorist and their sponsors where ever they may be.

[A2J]

Wonder where Jesse Jackson is.

Probably trying to wipe the DNA from Saddam's rear off of his lips.

[alisasny]

My irish friend just told me that wanker sort of means

"prick"

[leadpenny]

Has anyone else had tears swell up in their eyes?

I know what you mean.

[alisasny]

YES, and goosebumps!
