Human Shields in Iraq
Looking for safety.

A young Iraqi seeks shelter behind a U.S. soldier following a suicide blast. (RofP)
These human shields are not exactly your Code Pink variety.
** I am thinking that I have seen this photo before- But I don't really care.
It is just amazing.
UPDATE: You must see Military Motivator's interpretation of this photo!

Wow... That is powerful.
Substitute every trash-talking lefty for that boy, and you get a stark demonstration of their moral worth.
This was also on the front page of the New York Times. So alot of people saw it.
Please take a look at my interpretation of the picture...

I'm no following you on this. Do a lot of people read the NYT?
Chris - That is sooooo good!
Thank you.

So, THATS how it looks when Human Shields actually shield humans...
Excellent post, and excellent HS Mot pic. Linked to post, added MilMot to blogroll.

I saw this on another blog site a few days ago, but (as usual) the lefties used the comments as the opportunity to start the bushitlerhaliburton meme... to which I could only respond, "The boy doesn't know why or care why that soldier is in Iraq: he simply has learned that the American soldier is the Good Guy and that the Soldier would give his own life to protect the child." Nothing more. Nothing less.
I can't be lieve how powerful that picture is. Thanks. A great image. It reminds me of the shot of the US soldier cradling a wounded Iraqi girl.
