    the thing about human shields

    Is that you have to figure out a new strategy to use when your enemy employs them. I, at least, believe it is morally wrong to shoot at a terrorist standing in a crowd of preschoolers, no matter how many people have been killed by said terrorist, or his or her terrorist organization. And besides being morally wrong, it is also stupid.
