How much do human shields understand?

I'm still in shock that the Seattle P-I would agree to print this guest op-ed. They have, over the years, shown utter contempt for patriots such as this writer - and certainly for the Commander-in-Chief.

Don't skim through this piece - it's very well done and important.

Human Shields: just another way to say Collateral Damage.

[Destructor]

The "human shields" are too stupid to understand what they're doing.

Human shields hanging out in Iraq understand and are
as cognizant as Hydra, with their flagella hanging out and wavering in oceanic currents.

human shield (in Iraq)= Saddam Sympathizer = SS

This is a very good post but I can't believe it was printed in Seattle.

I wanted to call you to this piece because it's really less about human shield idiots than it is about the brave men and women who are, in fact, shielding us daily.

Hope you are doing well, though I know you miss your son.

The defining moment in understanding liberals is the point in which you discover that they are neither stupid nor ignorant. They are completely cognizant of the results of their chosen actions.

They are simply evil.

They have chosen the destruction that is the natural consequence of their actions. They are of the belief that their salvation lies in the annihilation of them and every thing else. They worship the zero.

I don't care what they understand,THIS IS'NT A DA*N THERAPY SESSION.Blow em away and be done with this problem.

You're right, annie. It's a very good piece showing the contrast between our brave and thoughtful soldiers, and these mindless ninnies who have proven themselves to be nothing but cowards.

Thanks for the ping, annie.

What these "human shields" fail or refuse to realize is the high potential of risk they not only put themselves in, but the very people they claim to protect and our troops as well. The Iraqi regime knows full well the tactical advantages these "shields" provide them. When pressed between dying in place or having a buffer to allow safe passage, shields will become hostages and U.S. troops will be placed in an extraordinary circumstance that may cause their own death. These people are either esoteric idiots,who will undoubtedly find out too late that the path to hell is paved with good intentions or avowed anti-American traitors hell bent on our failure.

So true. And don't miss the author's point about these folks being dead meat at the hands of freed Iraqis who will correctly identify them as traitors.

[buffyt]

"It is likely there will be no place more dangerous for the shields than among a newly liberated Iraqi populace, who will view them as pro-Saddam."

I had not thought of it that way!!!!!

I consider that their problem. It comes with the territory.

How much do human shields understand?

Well, some of them must understand something. When they were told they were wanted to be human shields of military/industrial targets, they realized they could get killed, and left the country. They were not as committed as they thought they were.
