No enemies had ever taken Ankh-Morpork. Well, technically they had, quite often; the city welcomed free-spending barbarian invaders, but somehow the puzzled raiders always found, after a few days, that they didn’t own their horses any more, and within a couple of months they were just another minority group with its own graffiti and food shops.

This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Crispin Crispian shall ne’er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remembered—
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers:
For he today that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now abed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap, whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.
~ Henry V, Henry V

WASHINGTON, DC— Speaking via
closed-circuit television from the Oval Office Monday, President Bush made a
direct plea to Osama bin Laden to form a nation the U.S. can attack.
"Whether you take over an existing nation like Afghanistan or create a new
breakaway republic called, say, Osamastan, the important thing is that you
establish an identifiable nation-state with an army, a capital, and clearly
defined borders," Bush said. "Maybe you could also sign some quick
treaties to definitively establish who your allies are." The president then
pledged $600 million to bin Laden for the construction of a state-of-the-art
defense headquarters that the U.S. can bomb.

“Wait! We cannot break bread with you. You have taken the land which is rightfully ours. Years from now, my people will be forced to live in mobile homes on reservations. Your people will wear cardigans and drink highballs. We will sell our bracelets by the roadsides; you will play golf and enjoy hot hors d'oeuvres. My people will have pain and degradation; your people will have stick shifts. The gods of my tribe have spoken. They say: ‘Do not trust the pilgrims! Especially Sarah Miller.’ And for all these reasons I have decided to scalp you and burn your village to the ground.”
