International National Security Levels

International National Security Levels
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The British are feeling the pinch in relation to recent
bombings, the level has just been raised from 'miffed' to
"peeved'! Soon though, the levels may be raised yet again to
"irritated' or even " a bit cross"!! Londoners have not been
a "bit cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies all
but ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorised from
"tiresome" to "a bloody nuisance", the last time a "bloody
nuisance" warning level was issued was during the great fire
in 1666.

Be aware that the French government announced yesterday that
it has raised its terror alert level from RUN to HIDE. The
only two higher levels in France are Surrender and
Collaborate. The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that
destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively
paralysing their military capability.
It's not only the French that are on a heightened level of alert,
the Italians have increased their alert level from "shout loudly
and excitedly" to "elaborate military posturing". Two more
levels remain, "ineffective combat operations" and "change
sides".

The Germans also increased their alert state from
"disdainful arrogance" to "dress in uniform and sing
marching songs". They have two higher levels, "invade a
neighbour" and "lose".

Seeing this reaction in continental Europe the Americans
have gone from "isolationism" to "find another oil-rich
nation in the middle east ripe for regime change". Their
remaining higher alert states are "attack the world" and
"beg the British for help".
