The General is just doing what he has to do to keep his country
safe from terrorists.
You know, counter-terror measures. Like firing the Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court. That sort of thing.
No, ed gets it, lunchstealer. I think he genuinely objects to my
objection.
I think we all know what you would do in his place, ed.
So, the Flintstonemobile in the background is a nice touch, but why does the cave entrance to the right look like a hairy buttcrack?
It's obvious that we need to be just as firm with Pakistan as we
are with Iran: under no circumstances can we allow such an unstable
country obtain nuclear weapons.
[...]
They do?
Rimfax,
I was going to note that Fred Flintstone in the background was the
funniest part of the comic. Then you had to ruin my appetite by
directing my attention to the cave.
Not sure what the hirsute cave is all about. Maybe a dig at the
evil-doers?
I wouldn't presume to know what I'd do in Musharef's
place.
That's a job that's way above my pay scale.
FWIW and in context, I thought I'd pass this one along:

Hi guys:
We've all been putting in long hours but we've really come together as a group and I love that.
Big thanks to Omar for putting up the poster that says, "There is no I in team" as well as the one that says, "Hang In There, Baby." That cat is hilarious.
However, while we are fighting a jihad, we can't forget to take care of the cave. And frankly I have a few concerns.
First of all, while it's good to be concerned about cruise missiles, we should be even more concerned about the scorpions in our cave. Hey, you don't want to be stung, and neither do I, so we need to sweep the cave daily. I've posted a sign-up sheet near the main cave opening.
Second, it's not often I make a video address, but when I do, I'm trying to scare the most powerful country on Earth, OK? That means that, while we're taping, please do not ride your scooter around in the background.
Just while we're taping. Thanks.
Third: Food. I bought a box of Cheez-Its recently, clearly wrote "Osama" on the front, and put it on the top shelf. Today, my Cheez-Its were gone.
Consideration. That's all I'm saying.
Finally, we've heard that there may be American soldiers in disguise trying to infiltrate our ranks. I want to set up patrols to look for them.
First patrol will be Omar, Abdul, Muhammad, Akbar and Dave.
Love you lots,
Osama
This is one reason to support Pakistan. I work with several Pakistanis who tell me about the ammount of Al-Quida being all arround them. It is too bad that Pakistan's constitution is too weak to keep the government from collapse. Hopefully Musarif can beat these terorists back. Pakistan is in a bad state of affairs right now.
If only the Friday Funnies were funny. Or, at least, pointed. Or, maybe, even well-drawn. Sigh...
This is one reason to support Pakistan.
So they can continue to not fight any terrorists
while taking billions in military aid that they use to subjugate
enemies of the dictator?
