These people are almost funny, in a black comedy sort of way. ;)

The sooner we get to Baghdad where we can live more cheaply, the better.”

There's a revealing statement.
Pity if they don't make it. I'd love our armed forces to do Darwin's work with these idiotarians.

Talking Heads --  Road To Nowhere

WELL WE KNOW WHERE WE'RE GOIN'
BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHERE WE'VE BEEN
AND WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE KNOWIN'
BUT WE CAN'T SAY WHAT WE'VE SEEN
AND WE'RE NOT LITTLE CHILDREN
AND WE KNOW WHAT WE WANT
AND THE FUTURE IS CERTAIN
GIVE US TIME TO WORK IT OUT

We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin' that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride

I'm feelin' okay this mornin'
And you know,
We're on the road to paradise
Here we go, here we go

CHORUS

Maybe you wonder where you are
I don't care
Here is where time is on our side
Take you there...take you there

We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere
We're on a road to nowhere

There's a city in my mind
Come along and take that ride
and it's all right, baby, it's all right

And it's very far away
But it's growing day by day
And it's all right, baby, it's all right

They can tell you what to do
But they'll make a fool of you
And it's all right, baby, it's all right

We're on a road to nowhere

If they think the trip was bad, wait until they are confronted with the choice of being blown to bits by the USA or shot to death by the Iraqis.

Bill & Ted & Saddams's Excellent Peace Advaenture

Dude.....I think we're lost!

[Dec31,1999]

There are so many ironies in this article, that I just have to laugh!

For example, Saddam Hussein, the "benevolent dictator", requires that the people coming into his kingdom who support benevolent dictators, take HIV tests, whereas the US, under the "Evil Republican Capitalist" requires no such "discrimination". LOL! You can't make this stuff up!

Bringing their own heroin too, no doubt.

[Enough is ENOUGH]

Would some generous donor please come forward and finance the rest of the trip for these idiots so they can get to ground zero in Baghdad before the war starts and be quickly put out of their misery. Sheeesh!

[Vince Ferrer]

Spinal Tap could not have put together a better tour.

Very funny.

The best-laid plans of mice and men go oft astray.

Someone should inform the Turkish authorities that these scum-sucking commie rats have secreted drugs where the sun don't shine. Hee hee

M.I.

Talk about miserable people...

If I was the CIA, I would hand-out roadmaps, money and food and get this same reporter to write daily stories regarding these troubadours of useful idiots...

Organisers told the human shields they must each stump up $1,000 before they could enter Iraq. In addition, they would have to leave their mobile phones at the border, cutting off all communication with home, and be subjected to tests for HIV.

You mean we'll have to actually pay for our beliefs and not be feted in Iraq for so very, very bravely standing up to the evil U.S. war machine?

[Experiment 6-2-6]

One of your best posts ever!

[ewing]

The HIV test alone will eliminate half of the 75 applicants right there at the border to Iraq!

From www.humanshields.org:

VERY IMPORTANT UPDATE!

If you want to join the action, you must do one the following:

Option 1

1. Fill in the forms on our main website (click "Enter Site" above) and send them to us as soon as possible so we can include you on our group visa. 2. Pay £300 and have a place on a 3 month open-return flight from London to Amman in Jordan. PLEASE NOTE: THERE ARE VERY LIMITED SPACES ON THESE FLIGHTS (Next flight leaves London on 17th February for Amman) 3. Continue from Amman, Jordan overland via bus to Baghdad.

Option 2

1. Contact the local or national Iraqi embassy in your country and give them your name, birth date, nationality, passport number and expiry date. 2. Tell them you require a visa for Iraq traveling as a human shield (for as long as possible) 3. Make your own way to reach Amman in Jordan by the 16th February, 2003 to meet the bus transports to Iraq. We are arranging an office in Amman to co-ordinate the transports into Iraq. We also plan to have a representative at the airport in Amman.

Option 3

1. Fill in the forms on our site (as option 1) above. 2. Get to Istanbul, Turkey for Friday, February 7th at the latest to join the bus convoy which left from London. Please note: There are also very limited spaces on this convoy.

IF YOU WANT TO BE A HUMAN SHIELD, JUST GO!!!

You don't need us to be a human shield, follow option 2 but make your own way into Iraq where possible. We can obviously advise to an extent but we are already very busy with the demand for transport.

They forgot... Option 4

Get a life.

[Arpege92]

[Exit148]

HeeHee! Are they having fun yet??

Thanks, Ivan! We needed this!

“We are buying our own hypodermic syringes”, said Williams. “They could just as easily give you HIV with the needles in Iraq.”

What are the odds these loons already have AIDS or are heroin junkies already.
