I really couldn't believe this when I first read it:

[url]http://news.yahoo.com/h/nm/20010920/ts/attack_name_dc.html[/url]

The journalists -- and the mullahs who countenanced this attack -- are getting a say in what phrasing is used in speeches and what the war's "operation" is going to be named?!??!

Who CARES what it's called!  U.S. armed forces are going to be shooting people, blowing people up, and so on, and they're worried that the NAME might be offensive?!??

I hereby propose that the operation's name be changed to Operation Fluffy Bunnies.  Everyone loves fluffy bunnies, after all (except Albert, of course) -- they offend no one (except Albert).  Then the journalists and clerics can go screw themselves and let Bush and his military advisors plan what to do, where to bomb, and whom to shoot.

Bunnies are extrememly offensive to me.

How about "Operation Dingy Towel"?

Deceptive, because who'd be afraid of an angry poodle?

I find towels exceptionally offensive.  The fact that they are dingy simply exacerbates it.

I like "Operation I Know You Are But What Am I?"

Or we could make it an enticing name so they'll come out from hiding to take a look.

How about "Operation Cattle Drop", we'll drop cows on them from 25k feet up.  Aren't cattle sacred in that religion?

No, you can't use Operation Fluffy Bunny, because that is too similar to "Fuzzy Bunny," which is what FedGov changed their Carnivore program to. After all, it was just the name that people found offensive, not the fact that it would rip all their e-mails and track what URLs they hit.

No, that's Hinduism, in India.

But pigs are unclean animals, so let's bomb them with pigs. Then we'll bury their corpses wrapped in the pigskin that killed them, with their asses facing Mecca.

Or is that mean, unnecessary and unfeeling of me?

Hindus consider cattle sacred, which only make up part of India's population.

You're thinking of Hindus and Sikhs.

I realize that this might be considered unnecessarily cruel, and could well prompt the Islamic nations to request that we nuke them, but how about "[b]Hildebeast and Chuckie go to Afghanistan[/b]."

Not exactly.  By eating with one's left hand, and by eating an "unclean" animal, all that is being done is confirming one's ignorance and lack of personal hygiene as an infidel. [:p]
