What's my name again?

This war sucks ass. Even the goths are bored, and they can maintain an interest in Anne Rice's answering machine messages.

(The author would like to point out that he realises that only one goth is bored, and only one goth has tabulated Anne Rice's answering machine messages, and even that goth has subsequently stopped, and that this is therefore an unwarranted calumny on gothkind and immediately retracted)

It strikes me that part of the problem lies in poor branding. "Operation Iraqi Freedom" is not the name of a military operation. It's the name of an Action Force (that's GI Joe, for those of you listening in the US) comic. It is, at best, an instruction given to Rumble and Ravage by Soundwave on the occasion of their ejection.

Women dig Soundwave, because he has a cool voice and is a single parent.

Anyway, does anyone have any better ideas for Operation names? I quite like "Operation High Jack this Fags". Or:

Operation Enduring Can of Whoopass
Operation Pretend they're French
Operation Duck you Suckers
Operation Can we Connect this to the War on Drugs as well Somehow? of Whoopass

Or, inspired by Ari Fleischer's unusually Bruce Willis comment that failing to leave Iraq was Saddam Hussein's "last mistake", Operation Wolf. Remember, you lose energy if you gun down the civilians. But not actually that much energy.

Do you have something blinding and hearts-and-minding? Tell me.
