| BOMB dropped on Human Shields |
| 2003-04-01 |
| If it weren't for the reliability of the newspaper, I'd think it were an April fools joke. It IS true however. From the Daily telegraph mirror SEVERAL people were wounded when a US warplane bombed two Iraqi buses carrying international volunteers, some of them American, who were operating as "human shields", Information Minister Mohammad Said al-Sahhaf said. Darwinism at work |

| #12 Which direction were the buses travelling? Delivering Human Shields to Amman or jihadi to Bagdad? On second thought, either direction passengers are fair game. |

| #10 It is a long way from the border to Baghdad. Might have to rename it the Extra Long Highway of Death. |

| #9 Were they strapped to the outside to shield the buses, or did they screw that up, too? |

| #7 Well, that's IS why they're there. Good to see the USAF is also doing their job. |

| #6 I heard on the radio this morning that the peace groups in Jordan, know nothing about this. I wonder if these human shields were the type looking to strap on bombs? Another message of "don't get involved maybe being sent". |

| #4 I can't believe they were merely wounded. That's a new low in Iraqi insults! |
