Baghdad Draws Peaceniks of All Shapes and Sizes
Well, at least they're not inflicting themselves on an unsuspecting American public....
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - What do a priest, Miss Germany, a spiritual healer and a diehard communist all have in common?
They have made their way to Baghdad to try to stop a U.S.-led war on Iraq, employing various skills and talents, ranging from diplomacy to spiritual healing, soccer to fashion.
Baghdadis, who have not seen such a diverse influx of foreigners for many a year, are both amused and bemused.
"I am a Reiki master, look it up on the Internet," said Peter van Dyke, who drove a London cab to Baghdad with another 100 "human shields" following in double decker buses.
Right. And I am a Jedi Warrior; you can look THAT up on the Internet.
