How empty must your existence be that this is a goal in life:
LONDON (Reuters) – A first wave of mainly Western volunteers will leave London this weekend on a convoy bound for Iraq to act as “human shields” at key sites and populous areas in case of a U.S.-led war on Baghdad.
“The potential for white Western body parts flying around with the Iraqi ones should make them think again about this imperialist oil war,” organizer Ken Nichols, a former U.S. marine in the 1991 Gulf War, told Reuters.
His “We the People” organization will be sending off a first group of 50 human shields from the London mayor’s City Hall building Saturday, part of a series of departures organizers say will involve hundreds, possibly thousands, of volunteers.
Seriously, now. John Walker Lindh at least had the sense to arm himself.

Do they really think that the F-117 and B-1 pilots are going to fly low enough to check their ID’s before bombing them? I think human shield is a bad term for them, I’d think Darwin Shield™ would be better – it’s evolution in action and the human race will be just a bit better off.
