Not complaining, mocking would be a more closer approximation. Think about it, this group made international headlines because they had the guts to follow their ideals and stand as human shields against the war in Iraq. At some level (granted very small), their courage and sacrifice affected public opinion and foreign affair decisions around the world.

However, when they actually had to stand up and face death as they declared to the world they would. They ran for cover.

How much worldwide press do you think their most recent decision will get?

In a way, their action, is a microcosm of what a lot of Iraqi's, who support Hussein, will also do.
