Cool. I got an email containing not a single word of English. Not only that but none of the words even used a western alphabet. At first I thought, oh great, Sadaam Hussein has read my opinions and is giving me a last warning. This was a flattering surmise and a wonderful surprise, since only about three, maybe four, (plus, of course, you) people in the world have read my slithy blog, and for me to have hit the jackpot by having one of those lucky few who have seen it be among the very people I want to insult, and this sentence is getting too long, so you finish it yourself, etc..

But clicking on what looked like a link in the message got me to this web site. It appears to be Korean. It may be someone's blog. It may be a commecial site to which I have been lured by Korean spam. I don't know. But whatever it is, it reminds me that I haven't actually mentioned North Korea on this blog.

The leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-il, is a disgusting, evil, little spoiled turd who should be in an institution for the criminally insane, and I hope he is visiting one of his nuclear weapon-making facilities when we bomb it so he can join his alleged father, Kim il Sung, in the ninth circle of hell.

There. Should I have that translated, do you think?

Encouragement to a Psychopath

After Sadaam's big interview with Dan R, he reportedly had some questions of his own for the great newsman. Sadaam must have been in a good mood, because he didn't employ his usual methods of extracting information, and Dan apparently got to leave with his testicles (such as they are) intact. But guess what Sadaam asked about... He wanted to know about "public opinion" in the U.S. Isn't that interesting?

So be aware, o' noble war protesters, as you try to sway public opinion. Though Sadaam can't be with you in the flesh, his thoughts go with you. And rest assured, he's on your side!

Dark of the Moon

Starting around now in Baghdad the moon doesn't rise until almost dawn. The nights there are getting to be very dark and probably beginning to seem very long for Sadaam Hussein and his lackeys.

Serious

If you need a nice shock to convince you that these guys are out to *kill* you, follow the links Spiced Sassy provides. She's outraged. Why aren't you?

Boycott the Academy Awards

What a great idea! Someone just phoned in to the Jayne Carroll radio talk show with this suggestion. I like it.

I especially like it because for me it will be painless, since it's a lot like telling me to bocott my local mosque or to stop eating escargot. No problemo. My kind of protest. Last year my participation in the Academy Award mania consisted of checking the list of winners the next day and gritting my teeth in disgust that Lord of the Rings didn't get Best Picture. Oh, and I usually look at the photos of starlets in low-cut transparent dresses. But I'm willing to forgo all that in the name of sending a message to the movie industry that the No War Chic will hurt them financially.

And if a large enough movement like this could get rolling, it would indeed get the attention of the posturing celebrities and sugardaddy producers. So, pass the word.

Buy Bulgarian

Sophia Sideshow has a fascinating discussion of the attitude of East Europeans towards America.

Jaw Dropper

This article seems like it should be in Onion News, but they appear to be serious:

Iranian leader Mohammad Khatami issued an extraordinary assessment of U.S. foreign policy Monday, accusing the United States of positioning itself as a violent "big brother" driven by "fanatic fundamentalism."

No War

Hey, I'M ANTI-WAR TOO! Damn it. Who isn't? From the ones I've met, heard, and read, most of the people in our military are also anti-war. Celebritities and peace protesters scream "No war!" and argue that war is horrible and go on to list a long litany of ills and evils that may come from a war with Iraq. War, they say, is bad. Well, duh. The argument is a red herring and a straw man (a straw herring?). It's arguing something that isn't even the issue just because nobody can easily disagree with it. It's a way to sound high and moral without actually having to really think about anything. None of us want war or the horrors of war. It's just that right now the alternatives are worse and some of us have the guts to look that fact in the face. If we don't go in and take out those weapons of mass destruction, one way or another those same weapons are going to come to take some of us out.

Hate the French?

Don't. Many of them are wonderful human beings. And not all the French are in lockstep with the pompous and corrupt Chirac. Thanks to the inimitable Road Sassy for calling attention to The Dissident Frogman.
