    At around 3 AM Rumsfeld wakes msfe and urgently asks: "Msfe, quick, look up... What do you deduce!?

    Msfe replies, "Well, I see the night sky and thousands of stars, each one representing an Iraqi oil well your country wants to take over."

    Msfe, you idiot! Someone has stolen our tent!´

    Switzerland condemns US unilateral action

    The Swiss foreign minister, Micheline Calmy-Rey, has condemned a threat by the United States to take military action against Iraq without the approval of the United Nations.

    Swiss say Iraq war is hard to justify

    As the clock counts down to war in the Middle East, eight prominent Swiss have told swissinfo that there is little legitimacy for war in Iraq.

  2. Wow! All eight, eh? Oops, excuse me eight prominent Swiss. Was that a majority? See if you can dig up any Kuwaitis that agree.

    Oh my god, what are we going to do now? USA is terrified. It was condemned by a little village in the Alps named Switzerland.

    This is the same little village the population of which admits to suffer from sever inferiority complex. And rightly so, the village is so insignificant, it does not even have its own language. It also admits to having always been mistreated by its neighbours and never being able to fight back.

    On top of it they are always neutered (oops I meant neutral).

  4. Oh my God! I am soooo fearful of Ms. Calmy-Rey's condemnation! Wanna know why? I'm afraid she'll take off that bad ass belt and hit our ambassador with it.

  6. msfe, I'm sure most Americans are greatly concerned that our relations with your country are poisoned, that you have condemned our "unilateral" action, that your bondage-mistress of a Foreign Minister doesn't like us, and that all 8 of the prominent Swiss have questioned the legitimacy of our action.

    Your country's opinion ranks on our national consciousness slightly behind current legislation in Congress to approve federal funds to paint a Smokey the Bear on the roof of all of our national parks' outhouses.

  7. The mere fact that Msfe failed to respond to max's post ("Wow! All eight, eh? Oops, excuse me eight prominent Swiss. Was that a majority? See if you can dig up any Kuwaitis that agree.") speaks louder than words.

    Msfe isn't here to have a discussion, he is here to try to browbeat us.

    The way people get stuck into him over the last couple of days clearly shows the frustation they suffered trying (and failing) to get him to respond to their posts.

    Methinks he is either on you know who's payroll or else he is a nutcase.

    Take your pick, neither of them is very admirable.

    Despite the digs aimed at the Swiss as a whole (and of course we cannot generalise - there MUST be a good Swiss somewhere) I would go as far as saying that the way Msfe has conducted himself has tended to give all Swiss a bad name.

    The same would of course apply to our local loudmouth Mr Yah0000000000 whose abysmal way in getting his outlook across is so ofputting.

    I guess, just as every village has a village idiot, the same is likely to apply to this website, we too have a website idiot.

    In fact I am sorry to say we seem to be 'blessed' by having at least TWO.

    msfe himself provided the link below to a public opinion poll in Switzerland showing that it is the most anti-american country in Europe.

    So if he indeed is swiss as he claims, he does represent his nation well.

    http://www.nzz.ch/2003/02/20/english/page-synd1642415.html

    Of course the article goes on to explain the anti-american sentiment in the country by "fear of feeling inferior". Duh.

  9. Skeptic, do you really belief that Msfe is Swiss ?

    I doubt it very much. It looks more as if he is a pro Saddam person living in the US.

    You know one of those idits who hate the West yet are desperate to live there and too stupid to see how illogical their contradictory behaviour is.

  10. I wonder if Saddam is repeating Gary Bussey's line in Under Siege: "Those are just five inch star bursts..."
