No..........Saddma's destruction dos not have to cost so many their lives. Violence begets more violence. We will be mudering thousands of innocent people and we will be bringing ourselves down to his level.

Cab fare too pricey for local human shield By DOUG BEAZLEY, EDMONTON SUN At least Baghdad's cab drivers are making a tidy profit off the war panic. Bruce McRae, the University of Alberta political science grad who travelled to Iraq recently to volunteer himself as a human shield, said yesterday he left Baghdad on the weekend because the cost of fleeing later would be too steep. "I talked to (journalists) and cab drivers in Iraq, and they told me I'd have to pay $10,000 US to hire a car to take me over the border once the bombs start dropping," McRae, 24, said yesterday from his hotel room in Amman, Jordan. "I don't have those resources. I'm not backed by some big corporation; I'm being supported by my mother here. "I was told that once the shooting starts, there'd be no way for me to get out unless I have a lot of money." canoe.ca LOL! Frigging cab drivers are alike everywhere.
