Insufficiently Addled Discourse (IADs)

Yes folks, there it is. NATO high command has issued a statement that has been applauded by the CIA and the White House, along with the international intelligence community. According to this statement, world peace is threatened by a surge in the number of IADs over the past decade. Steps will have to be taken quickly to turn this situation around. There is much hope that this can be done before the global climate change summit to be held in Copenhagen.

In order to bring about effective, positive changes around the globe recent research within NATO has shown that more alcohol needs to be consumed by world leaders. This is particularly but not exclusively the case before, during and after major summits such as the G8, G20 and the like. There is little doubt by those in the know that with increased consumption of alcohol, as well as other mild depressants (which should be re-cast as Negotiation-Facilitating Goods [NFGs]) contentious issues in global affairs would see far swifter, more satisfying resolutions.

The Kremlin and the French and Italian governments have already expressed strong support for further research to back up these findings, and have volunteered manpower and resources for the task.

As a responsible global citizen, I feel that it is therefore my duty, nay, my privilege, to go pour myself a glass of chateau des charmes cabernet-merlot.

Off I go. For the future!

  1. Ha, you are all late, that's the reason we invented champagne in Spain. And you can see the result, politics in Spain are all a smooth, quiet... well, not really.

  2. Yes, it's true. And the reason they call Spanish champagne (sparkling wine for you purists) cava is because the Spanish invented it when they still lived in caves (circa 1940s). Ever since, Spanish politics has been famous for its serene quietude.
