Terror Threat

  The  English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent terrorist  threats, and have therefore raised their security level from  "Miffed" to "Peeved". Soon, though, security levels may be  raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross". The  English have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940,  when tea supplies nearly ran out.    

Terrorists have been re-categorized from  "Tiresome" to "A Bloody Nuisance". The last time the British  issued a "Bloody Nuisance" warning level was in 1588, when  threatened by the Spanish Armada.

The  Scots have raised their threat level from "Pissed Off" to  "Let's get the Bastards". They don't have any other levels.  This is the reason they have been used on the front line of  the British army for the last 300  years.

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 "Collaborate" and "Surrender". The  upgrade was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed  France's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing the  country's military capability.

Italy has  increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to  "Elaborate Military Posturing". Two more levels remain:  "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change  Sides".

The  Germans have increased their alert state from "Disdainful  Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs". They  also have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbor" and  "Lose".

Belgians,  on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only  threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of  Brussels.

The  Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to  deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so  the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old  Spanish navy.

Americans  meanwhile, and as usual, are carrying out pre-emptive strikes  on all of their allies "just in case".

Canada doesn't  have any alert levels.

New  Zealand has  raised its security levels - from "baaa" to "BAAAA". Due to  continuing defense cutbacks, New Zealand has only one more  level of escalation, which is "I hope Australia will come and  rescue us".

Australia,  meanwhile, has raised its security level from "No worries" to  "She'll be alright, mate". Three more escalation levels  remain: "Crikey!", "I think we'll need to cancel the barbie  this weekend" and "The barbie is cancelled". So far no  situation has ever warranted use of the final escalation  level.
