A HRW report has shown that insurgents are using shields and that it is not a "isolated event."
www.hrw.org...

Iraqi prisoners of war said they received orders to “use any means necessary” during their battle with the Marines including “putting women and children in the street.”


Isolated incidents?


Yusif Sahib Jawad, a 29-year-old taxi driver, witnessed fedayeen fighters hiding between houses on al-Madina Street where much of the fighting in al-Najaf took place. “Most of the fedayeen and Ba`thists distributed and hid between houses because they thought the Americans wouldn’t shoot civilians.

More proof, I wonder how all of this escaped the medias attention and eyes , if a group like this can aqquire information like this then how come none of the media be it "independant" or "corporate" hasnt even picked up more than a sniff of this?

Is the media playing down insurgent warcrimes?
