From the onset of this foolishment it has been clear to me that these people really deep-down believed so strongly in America's goodness that they honestly thought we would not actually bomb them. When the Iraqis started putting them in places that were sure to be bombed panic began to set in. As long as they were able to put signs on the roof they felt safe. Americans won't bomb civilians purposely and they knew it. They recognize our goodness yet they hate us.

"We painted a huge sign on the roof saying human shields, so when any planes bombed the target, they'd see they were killing us -- Englishmen and Finns and Turks".

 

Dare I say it?  Darwin award...

"I had promised my wife I would get the buses home," he said. "If I don't get them home, we're absolutely stuck."

I did not think of it that way but I think you are dead on with that conclusion.

Nice One.

But he said that although he stayed on as a shield for a week, he had no intention of staying in Baghdad for the duration of a war.

Not very committed to the cause is he?

This is a soap opera where I tune in and see what nutty thing the "shields" are up to today. It should have been a reality TV show.

I hope South Park runs with this. :)

Where did they think they were going?

"They must have been in a hurry to get to a funeral."

(Classic line from Sean Connery in a Bond movie...uttered in a perfect dead-pan
to some by-standers...wondering where the bad guys were headed...until 007 ran them off
the road.)

Perhaps they could sell their silly bongo drums, crack pipes and roach clips for the fare home..

The women were far too ugly and unclean to sell their bodies...


THESE are the moral leaders we should follow......NOT!

I ask in all seriousness, do these folks ... hmm ... like, have families, jobs, pets, appointments, obligations? You know, the things ordinary to a human life? If so, I have to wonder (with loads of sick humour) the conversations that must've taken place prior to departure.

"Sorry, Junior. Mommy/Daddy loves you very much, but I love more the idea of getting my name in the news for being an idiot. You understand, you're very special to my heart and all, buttttt..." ???

"Sorry, boss, but as I see there's no room for advancement within this organization..."
