The compromise proposal made Wednesday marked a significant change in the Bush administration's campaign to shield Americans from frivolous or politically motivated prosecutions by the new International Criminal Court.

"From now on," explained White House Spokesman Ari Fleischer, "if some pi$$ant little country f**cks with our peace keepers, we'll just bomb the living sh*t out of them."

Surprisingly, world reaction to this new policy was somewhat mixed.

In Moscow, an exasperated spokesman for Russian President Vladimir Putin said, "You Americans are always wasting good munitions. Just chop the little pr*cks into pieces and mail them home to their families in multiple packages. That's what we did the ONE time some middle eastern terrorists messed with one of our embassy personnel." (Emphasis in the original.)

Nato ally Spain quickly announced that U.S. war planes would not be granted over-flight rights for any such missions.

The Arab league promptly denounced the new policy as "a Zionist Plot."

Cuba's President-Forever Fidel Castro stated, "We will not be intimidated by the Yankee running dogs. I will, therefore, move immediately to invade Ft. Lauderdale and South Padre Island." El Presidente then mumbled something which may (or may not) translate from Spanish to English as "Gotta see some o' them Wet t-shirt contests. Yabos. Yabos. Yab-Os. Gotta love 'em."

In Paris both the President and the Premier were on summer vacation with their respective mistresses, so whoever was in charge promptly surrendered, declared Paris an open city, and announced a 75% pay raise for all government employees.
