Have you heard about the human shield movement? People are going to Iraq to act as human shields in front of potential bombing targets in the hopes these places won't be bombed if there are innocent people there. If they want to do it, risk their lives that way, more power to 'em. But I couldn't help but laugh at this guy who was quoted in the NY Times. "I think the Iraqi government is potentially putting us in a dangerous position," said a young Australian who said he had decided to leave. ... Uh, what part of "human shield" didn't he understand before he got there?
