Haiku is the form of poetry that the Japanese Samurai used for their death poems yes?

Victor

Maybe he'll do a Hitler style "died fighting at the barricades to defend Berlin". Or maybe he'll just shave off his moustache.

Éomer of Rohan

In that case I hope the Iraqis don't act like the Nazis for they would deserve everything to Baghdad that the Soviets did to Berlin.

Clintons Cat

kurds.

Éomer of Rohan

Clintons Cat

All I know is that it's Japanese and has to have 5-7-5 syllable form. Not sure about the other rules and stuff.

i'm wondering why george bush said that ,maybe there is an exit route for him if he wanted it,something the french maybe worked out ,this would suit a lot of people but on second thoughts no i'm thinking it's just part of the choreography worked out at the weekend in portugal

The Surgeon

Did anyone else get the distinct impression that Georgie-baby sounded a bit like Wyatt Earp yesterday? "Saddam, you have forty eight hours to pack up your wagon, and git outta town". Kinda preserves the theme he started after 911 when he talked about putting up "wanted posters - dead or alive". At least Ronald Reagan could tell the difference between celluloid and reality.

Yeah, the Soviets were such heroes. I'm so glad they showed those Nazis what for. Right before they themselves finishing killing 100 MILLLION people. Please.

Fearing Blair’s cutlass
Labour’s deaf blind and gutless
Prefer ‘Raqi rocks

Old cold war school boys
The Triumph Of The Willing
To devastate Spring

Well obviously
If this is democracy
Then I am a fish (this one got on the Guardian site *cough*)

Next time Blair’s abroad
Quick, change the locks on Britain
Then everyone hide

Tony’s Churchill hour
George Dubya’s drunk on power
Reason is futile

Remember that song?
Things can only get better?
What bloody rubbish

pickarooney

Rain war on Iraq
To bring peace to the region
Or just for the craic

Hail the World Order
Some new lines drawn in the sand
Make a solid border

Snowball's chance in Hell
That war will bring about peace
Which is just as well

just/fair, geddit?

Do you mean the raping, or just the general destruction?

Clintons Cat

In Name of Democracy,
to secure peace flatten city,
And they call me crazy.

Clintons Cat

they almost got tariq aziz,
as he went to late night shop,
for some quality street.

Clintons Cat

kate aide keeps the score
so the armchair generals know
we are winning war.

How many casualties
have been inflicted? Was it
more than predicted?

shock and awe,for real.
are no words for how i feel
totally speachless.

Saddam hussain is
playing custer, Americans
drop a bunker buster.

Corben Dallas

I can change, I can change
Mustard and Anthrax arent that bad
just wait till my scuds are in range

They told me the peaceheads would save
an old 'hard but fair' Eastern Destpot
guess i'll make sure u all live in a grave

Resoltions and Sanctions were my only friends
Because i'm Islamic i just cant lie
its hard when u know its near the end.

Biffa Bacon

Hypocrite lefties
Don't care about Iraqis
Thank God they're ignored.

Éomer of Rohan

Yankie doodle went to war,
Good God what a nation!
Saw Iraqis, shot them dead
and called it liberation.

(sing to the tune of Yankie Doodle)

Clintons Cat

war will be over by
christmas.Pick another target
from bushes wishlist.

Éomer of Rohan

In a thirst for power,
oil they would devour,
Insufferable, Invincible, Inimitable

Bombs rained down
and so Iraq drowned,
Uncharitable, Unsanctioned, Unmistakable,

America!

Von

Fear not muslimoids
Give up and we might let you
Worship your false god

In the nation's pubs
Heavy drinkers against war
Demand booze not bombs

Éomer of Rohan

Are the right so blind
to believe it is kind
to kill?

Have they not learning
to sense yankie yearning
for power?

No longer are we free,
the war camp decree
No Democracy!

Bereted Squadies hand
out sweets,fighting heavy
down quality street.

Squaddies in berets
Hand out sweets, fighting their way
Through Quality Street
redrafted by Von

Noble Sons Of Desert
draw line in sand,fighting for
cause we don't understand.

Nuclear Four Minute
Warning,Clair Short considers
resigning in morning.

Clintons Cat

Hospitals and Looters,
Kids With Shooters,Welcome the

Sadamns been toppled,
from atop his bronze pedestal.
Everyones an Art Critic.
