If you find a stabbing victim lying on the ground with the knife still sticking out of his abdomen, you might instinctively want to to help him by pulling the blade out quickly.
Don't.
Any emergency room doctor will tell you that doing that could rupture more arteries, cause more damage. When we invaded, we stabbed Iraq in the stomach. Somehow we have to remove the knife without killing the patient.
