Quote of the day: hiding in playgrounds at schools
Using Scuds to target tanks or military bases is one thing. Using them to target rebels hiding in playgrounds at schools is something else.
So, using Scuds is not OK, but using children as human shields (what else would "rebels" do hiding in playgrounds at schools?!?) is OK? WTF!!
