What a joke. They were aiming to get 5 to 10,000 people to go there but they only got 11. I can\'t imagine what they were thinking or why they think this would work.

THe host of the radio show asked the dude how he can afford it.  He actually siad he was going to declare bankruptsy when he gets back to the states.

I honestly think these people should be brought up on charges of treason or something.

Although i agree acting as a human sheild is stupid, unless they actualy took up arms agaisnt the United States, how would you charge them with treason?

From the article:

"He told Britain\'s Press Association news agency that Iraq limited the sites that human shields could visit. "Now we are being told we cannot go to certain sites, such as hospitals, so we are reassessing our strategy," he said."



:laughing:

They share something in common with the UN Inspectors. ;)

Its almost halarious the stupidity of people sometimes. They went there in order to protest the US. After they ran out of marijuana and reality finally hit that this isn\'t going to be some sort of party, they all got scared and wanted to leave. :laughing:
