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.

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

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

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.

"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.

Wonder where Jesse Jackson is.

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