From the article as linked in the first post:
In the event of all-out war, they may deploy to strategic humanitarian sites putting themselves in harms way, in order to try and protect the ordinary people of Iraq.
This makes it seem as though they think the USA wants to bomb civilians. If they only put themselves in people's houses, sadly, their risk of eating a GBU is very small.
But every life is precious, and we need to recognise that a war that will kill innocent Iraqis must be opposed with all our hearts. I am going to Iraq to try to stop this war, and so to preserve life.
If they love all life so much, where have these human-shields been the past 12-years of Saddam's neglect and outright murder of his own innocent people? I guess life is so precious that it's best to let the current Iraqi regime continue to starve and murder its own people and fool yourself into thinking you are saving lives. Heck, if the Iraqis try to leave their sad situation, it's a country with armed guards at the borders who play the role of goaly and knock dissidents back into the game of suffering and death. The only hope for change these people have is from the outside, because within you'll be hung by piano wire if your eye twitches wrong. I guess it's acceptible to let the Iraqi rich, elite, empowered kill Iraqis rather than make war on the evil regime and try to bring about some long-lasting good not only for the Iraqis innocents, but the USA and Europe as well.
Saddam is trouble for the region, period. He's killed more Arabs and Persians than the Jews they are all supposed to hate. A veritible meat-grinder with the war on Iran, and then the murder of many Kuwaitis and entrenchment of power in his own country via murder. The sabotage of the Kuwaiti oil fields and now the support of terrorists who will take the war wider. Yeah, real smart to give your life to support this guy.
