Iranian child sinks U.S. battleship from bathtub
An 11 year old Iranian is being held responsible for the destruction of a U.S. battleship stationed near the straits of Hormuz. The child (name withheld) was playing with a plastic submarine when it accidentally fired a missile. A Bush spokesman said that this provocative act will increase the chances of U.S. sanctions and blamed in part the Chinese who manufactured the plastic sub.

5. Well, even worse...
I lost a game of Battleship against an Iranian friend the other day. Now I'm suspicious of him and the whole Iranian regime. There was no way he could have guessed A4, B4, and C4 as where it was located.

7. Bathtubs of Mass Destruction
Yet one more reason we need to nuke Iran. You can't get all the Iranian bathtubs without using a nuke.
