'I never thought they would fire live rounds.'
Speaking of Europe's dumbest peace activists, they were surprised to learn that it can be quite dangerous in the middle of a combat zone.
Here's the full quote from Kate Edwards, a "community worker from Manchester:"
"We were walking up the hill from Bethlehem when a tank came down the hill towards us.I could see a man in the tank and he was shouting at us to go back.
We carried on going...
...but then heard several bangs. We thought they had fired stun grenades to chase us off.
"We decided to stop for a moment to get used to the sound of the bangs before deciding what to do.
I never thought for a moment that they would fire live ammunition at us. Then I heard several more bangs and I realised that I had been hit in the stomach."
"I'm keeping away from the windows because a tank's going past and there are snipers all round here," she said."We're surviving on crisps, Diet Coke and a lot of fruit-and-nut chocolate.
It's too dangerous to go out anywhere but there's no point anyway because all the shops are closed."
