  • We love the iraqi information minister!

    Of course we do! That's why there is already an "official" fan site for him.



    What a laugh!

      That place is a goldmine of M.S.S. related humour.

          The important question is, what card is he on?



          I see a big future for the "Iraqi War Criminal Playing Cards" on eBay.

            It is amazing that a Nation would put out this kind of "information". If it wasn't so ridiculous as to be funny, then it would be frightening. Did the Arabs really believe this guy?

              It has been rumored that we have fired scud missiles into Kuwait. I am here now to tell you, we do not have any scud missiles and I don't know why they were fired into Kuwait.

                What a great site. I had a chance to catch up on all his press briefings that I missed...

                "The forces of American colonialism began to drop containers that produce a sound explosion, a very huge sound. I remind you that they said that their strategy is based on shock and awe. Those failed ones manufactured a type of container that has an explosive substance, which they drop. They cause a very huge explosion in terms of sound, as if the universe was shaken. After a while, you go out and you don't find anything. You find some nails, screws, pieces of metal, but the important thing here is the sound. Those failed ones think that through the huge sound explosion, people would be shocked and consequently would collapse and be defeated. What happened? The contrary. The fighters..., the masses..., and the heroic sons of the Iraqi tribes discovered this game. They will turn it against the American louts so as to shock them. Wait for surprises, God willing, to see how the US game will fail."


                Thanks for the link!

                      When attempting to access the site:

                      Due to overwhelming support for welovetheiraqiinformationminister.com. We will be bringing it back on a brand new web server that will be dedicated to the task of serving this comical view of history's funniest straight man. This should be up in 24 hours from now.



                      Note: from the webmaster
                      The site was so popular that 4000 visitors per second showed up from around the world and overwhelmed this shared server for over 8 hours until we turned it off in self defense. It basically put a 100 other businesses out of business for a day. If we had known it was going to be this popular we would have put it on it's own server from the beginning.

                      What started out as a private joke to be shared by a small group of friends has turned into a hit. Check back in 24 hours or so while the internet routers figure out where the new web server is that replaces this old one. The site consists of lots of bandwidth hogging pictures and animations that you'll love once you see it on its new home server.

                        I laughed until I cried.

                        Now all we need is a similar site for North Korea quotes - "...in case you had forgotten us, we HAVE NUKES! Hey! PAY ATTENTION TO US!!! Don't you dare to attack us! Hey! STOP IGNORING US!!! WE ARE ISSUING AN ULTIMATUM HERE!"
