Human Shields cannot be allowed to prevent us from destroying our enemies.

In fact, " true innocents," such as the inmates at Nazi concentration camps, wanted the camps to be bombed even though they knew that they too would be killed in the bombings.

These so called innocents, which in Afghanistan number in the millions, allow the Taliban to rule. Let them rise up and overthrow the Taliban and then I might consider them innocents. There's only 30,000 to 50,000 Taliban anyway. The passengers of flight 53 rose up against their "taliban" in mid flight. If they had done it on the ground most would be alive and the "Taliban" arrested. What is it with refugees anyway. If you are physically able to fight for what is right in your country, then you should stay there and fight it out. I would allow no able bodied refugees into Canada, except those from countries soon to be flooded by global warming as they will have no country. I would feed people if they are refugees because of famine or crop failures but not here.

Just adding my thoughts to a post from you to xsquared.
You said....." America stands for justice and the protection of the weak and innocent ,does it not? ".....

In the past week TV news reports have shown thousands and thousands of people in mid east countries celebrating in support of the terrorist actions in the USA. I'm sure you
have seen these news clips. I have not seen a single women
in these groups of terrorist. Why? Would the women in these countries fit into your above statement or do you mean just in America? And if these people do fit into your above statement how do you suggest that the USA protect these people.
Did you know that the taliban allow the sale of little girls to pay off debts and that those that celebrate in the streets support the taliban and the terrorist.

Try this web site.
Afghan Women. Under the tyranny of the fundamentalists
rawa.fancymarketing.net

I can't give a URL for this info but it comes from Macleans weekly magazine, Sept issue 2001. This is a very well known and respected Canadian magazine.

" The Afghan people formed the largest refugee migration from war in the 20th century, according to the United Nations. They're the 21st century's largest refugee nationality. Last month, they became the most numerous seekers of asylum to Britain. By any measure, their homeland is a place of torment-and opportunity for bin laden."
Are these refugees innocent people requiring protection from the USA?? if so how do you suggest the USA protect them??
