 Kneel before Zod. Atlanta, GA – In his first public appearance since his embarrassing loss to Superman, the once mighty General Zod has come forth to praise President Bush’s decision to send more troops to Iraq. Not trusting his ability to speak perfect English, the brash general used a Kryptonian interpreter in calling for even more troops to hit the sand in the chaotic country. “The Americans must win this war and win it convincingly. With the addition of more troops, America is sending a clear message that it will no longer tolerate the cowardly attacks by primitive militants.” Zod’s comments are in stark contrast to the views of other retired military “experts” who have graced the stage on several of CNN’s speculative programs
Noted military strategist and former General Alan Franko has repeatedly damned the idea of sending more troops into Iraq for fears of depleting the country’s strategic reserve of military personnel. “This is an absolute disaster in terms of defense of our homeland”, states Franko. “ Sending more troops into Iraq seems like a great idea on the surface. But, like lighting a fart on fire in a linen factory, this whole scenario could go up in flames.” Zod contends that more troops equal more power and that a reinvestment in military strength could both boost troop morale and convince other middle-eastern countries that any attempt to defeat the United States would be futile at best. “This is not about winning or losing”, Zod says. “When the Americans stepped onto Iraqi soil and executed their foolish leader, they achieved absolute victory. The extra soldiers can only aid in their effort to stabilize the war-torn country and gain a strategic foothold in defeating terrorists on their home turf.” In response to the latest non-scientific CNN poll that showed 82% of Americans to be “war-weary”, Zod addressed the American public in his legendary charismatic and Kryptonian way. "Only those who have known bitter defeat, sweet victory and the heights of human suffering can call themselves weary from war. You sit in front of your televisions and form opinions based on the musings of late night talk show hosts and the masturbatory monologues of upper-class journalists. If you are weary from war it is because you are weary of the price you must pay for the luxuries you seek.” In Zod we trust. |
