Next Event: the 200-Meter Splatter

Now that Steven Speilberg's moral-equivilence disaster Munich has once more ripped open the wound of Islamofascist terrorists slaughtering Israeli Olympic athletes in 1972, this is not a brilliant idea:

IRAN put a human shield of 1000 athletes around a key nuclear plant yesterday after Israel indicated it could launch strikes to stop the Islamic state building nuclear weapons.

While Israel would not necessarily target Iranian athletes, a couple of Iranian welterweight wrestlers aren't exactly what one would consider an effective deterrent to Israeli airpower.

Luckily for the athletes, the precision GBU-28s carried by Israeli F-15I strike fighters are ground-penetrating bunker busters, and aren't likely to cause many above ground casualties... though I wouldn't want to be the man on the ground to test that theory.

Big deal. They'll be in good shape to sprint away when the bombs start falling. Handicapped kids in wheelchairs? Now, we're talking.

Does radical Islam have a handicapped program? Oh, that's right... radical Islam is a handicapped program.

With all due respect, as the GBU-28s pass through the area that the "athletes" are standing, there will be collateral damage that will more than likely be fatal.
Not that I consider that to be a problem.
