#20  Everyone remember the technical term for "human shield": "war criminal".

#19  I got a kick out of the disgruntled human shields during the Iraq War - the ones that wanted to shield orphanages but instead were positioned to shield military targets. They were exasperated when the Baathists pointed out that orphans were their own shields. At least the Iranian regime is adhering to truth-in-advertising standards. I wonder if there will be any moles that slip in with the shields.

#18  I will call my ex-friend in Florida that was a human shield in Iraq for Sammy.

Maybe one of the surviving Baathists could sell the mullahs a "human shield" mailing list?

#17  Does "preparing" human shields include signing wills, updating dental records, and kissing one's ass good-bye?

#15  As many as it takes to finish the job! We won't forget 9/11, and now Russia won't forget 9/4 - 9/6 (and onward). 'Fraid you made a lil' mistake waking up the sleeping bear....We'll be nice (have to in our P.C. world), but I'm betting that Putin will soon take the gloves off! We will NOT desecrate the memories of those we've lost in Iraq by NOT finishing the job! {Puts tin foil hat on} And, BTW, we're really good Zionists, we're gonna let Israel take on Iran's nuke program {takes tin foil hat off}.

#14  Come now Zionists, over 1000 US military died in Iraq, how many must die in Iran to satisfy your thirst for American blood?

#13  Perhaps they should run an ad in the WaPo or NY Slimes. There are plenty of lilly-livered peeze activists over there. We could stand to thin the herd a bit anyway.

What are they paying? Is there hazardous duty pay?

#12  See below! They are the same!

While reports vary, they all are somewhat similar. It has fangs, witch it uses to drink blood.

#9  "Human shields? I don't see no human shields!"

#8  Someone spread the word that human shields are much more effective if the clerics themselves were part of the various contingents....

#7  I will call my ex-friend in Florida that was a human shield in Iraq for Sammy. Maybe she can get paid for this, which could help pay her fine to the US for her little trip to Baghdad. Heh heh.

#6  Good, great chance to gather intel at those sites.

#5  I hope they can persuade their entire clergy to gather en masse.

#4  Placing human shields at their decoy sites is somewhat ingenious, however I doubt that will "blink the eye" of Israel at the moment of truth, (remember the female protester [shield] that stood in front of the tank!)First class case of the jitters if you ask me.

#2  Khatami issued a "guarantee" not to seek atomic weapons, and warned Washington that it can't stabilize Iraq and Afghanistan without Teheran's help.

Seems to me we can't stabilize Iraq and Afghanistan with all of Teheran's interference is more like it. I know the solution, it involves large smoking holes in the ground.
