Seen on the Streets of Baghdad

FNC just broadcast a live shot of two Iraqi men walking down a street in Baghdad carrying the following sign:

GO HOME
HUMAN SHIELDS
YOU U.S. WANKERS

I have to say, that made my day. :)

P.S. I think that was the last line: my view was blocked by some of the crowd.

Update! Here are a couple of images of the sign, from One Hand Clapping. The first image is the better view, and the second image is from about the time I saw it.

GO HOME / HUMAN SHIELDS / YOU U.S. WANKERS

GO HOME / HUMAN SHIELDS / YOU U.S. WANKERS

Note how the US soldiers are arm-in-arm with Iraqis in the second picture. I figure if Baghdad Bob saw that, his head must have exploded.
