no justice - israel's 9 year old human shield, page-6

Brucey, I concede that children putting their young lives on the line is an emotive issue, but if you suggested to some of the young Hungarians that they had been coerced, they would probably get rather upset. A lot of them made it out to Australia. And Iranians are even more patriotic.
When a US armored division surrounded the house of one of Saddam's sons in Iraq, the last one left standing was Saddam's 15 year old grandson standing in a doorway firing back with an AK till the tank-fire took him out.Nobody coerced him either.
All very tragic, but I still think there is a difference when some gutless wonder MAKES kids open bags or act as a human shield.....
