However he came to it ... inspiration, cowardice, realization ... whatever. He did the best thing then possible, and apparently he has now wrtieen about how he was being used. Another good sign. I agree. However, it is amazing how stupid this individual was in the first place.

For the human shield organization, I recommend: Strategic Human Insertion Team: Fostering Obstruction, Resistance, & Barriers, Rejecting American Interests, & National Security.I'm not sure that the collective IQ of this bunch would rival that of a bucket of warm sewage.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Imagine what's going to happen to the remaining human shields once the war is over. Some of them are going to find themselves confronted with Iraqis who have been waiting--praying--for 20 years that the Americans would come and rid them of Saddam, but the only American they ever saw was some leftist wacko who came specifically at the very end to keep Saddam in power.
The human shield is going to be surprised by their lack of appreciation.

Is it possible that anyone could be so naive, so blind, so clueless?Yes, it really is. They are truly lucky (those who manage to escape Iraq) that there have been a few delays in getting this underway. There is a real chance in the alternate universe that they might have been nothing more than bloodspots by now.

The human shield is going to be surprised by the [typical Iraqi's] lack of appreciation. Very good insight!

The retards starting with Martin Sheen and Barbara Streisand should be forced to be human shields for the US and British forces.
To: WillVoteForFood
These sappy, meaningless gestures are I'm sure of great comedic value for the Hussein regime. I have to confess that, for the first time, I feel a tiny little sense of brotherhood for Iraqi soldiers.
I just know the rank-and-file are LTAO at this foolishness, just like our soldiers are.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Anyone remember the scene from the movie "Independence Day" where the peaceniks were partying up on the building with signs about "love" and "welcome". The aliens targeted them first and blew them away. Everytime I hear about these human shields I think about that scene.
To: VRWCmember
Bump for great humor.
To: WillVoteForFood
I wish all Americans were like these doofuses". I believe the plural of doofus is doofi, not dofuses. Sort of like the plural of alumnus is alumni, not alumnuses.

Father help those poor people, that they might open the eyes of their fellows.

Many Actually Retreated after Only One Night
maroons....all of 'em
There was another thread a few nights ago, with thoughts which bear repeating (thank you RobFromGa):
This is so true to form for these particular strain of hypocrite.
They want to be "human shields", but only as long as they are guaranteed to be safe; and certainly not against real "live" weapons.
All the while, real American men and women, many with families and close business associates who count on their safe return, stand in harms way in order to provide these fools with their freedom to be "virtual shields" in assistance to the enemy.
Whisc side is right? I think the answer is obvious.
Which side is more serious about this debate? Those in harms way and those who will comfort the widows of those that lose their lives are very serious in their resolve.
The opposition, represented by the "virtual shields" are, in comparison, child-like and unserious. Not yet grown-up children who Know everything (who didn't know everything at that age?), marching along aging hippies who fondly rememember the Vietnam protests, and the Hollywood money men who fund the remaining Socialists.
It's like Spring Break but it feels so much more serious and wil help your chances to be a star.
Call them what they are: "virtual shields". To qualify you need small brain, large mouth and no guts. Amd please don't muss my hair or makeup.
These ridiculous people are standing in the way of our liberation of the same population they claim to love.
