Banisters and canisters

This is the week when TACOman thought he had the Nobel Peace Prize all sewn up, with his strike on three Iranian nuclear development sites on Saturday, and claims that Iran’s ability to build weapons was “completely obliterated”. He flapped off to the NATO summit in The Hague with his willie out ready to wave it all over our allies just to show them how it’s done, because now there can be peace.

The fact that early analysis of the damage indicates possibly not so much (caveat: that’s all it is: early analysis) has him and his toadies spitting nails and demanding more strikes on reporters asking about this. If you question the effectiveness of the bomb run, you’re anti-American, anti-US military and anti-Santa.

If he didn’t want that prize so desperately, and if his big birthday parade the Saturday before hadn’t been such a bust, we wouldn’t be seeing these unhinged tirades. According to SecDef Whiskey Pete, this was the most complicated, most extensive and most successful military operation in history. 

Move over, D-Day landings.

So, of course today’s earworm has to be “Give Peace a Chance”. John and Yoko, 1969.
