Operation "Phantom Fury"??

[eleonora]

Doesn't it sound like the Phantom Menace?
Are you tired of those flashy names they use? operation Desert Storm, Shock and Awe...and now this.
It sounds ridiculous....who's the phantom anyway? I thought the insurgents were.

[Bluebear]

1. They always concoct some name like that

Operation Eternally Vigilant Dick-swinging Eagle Desert Furious Sandstorm

[RevCheesehead]

2. Operation "Get Satan"

Oh, wait, they didn't, did they?

[eleonora]

6. I kid you not. This is what a colonel behind the attack said

Colonel Gary Brandl of the United States Marine Corps commented: "The enemy has a face. It is Satan's. He is in Fallujah, and we are going to destroy him."

3. They came up with that one...

During one of their all-day, Ibogaine and Cane Toad Sweat-wracked, frantic masturbation sessions that they hold in a small closet off of Rummy's office.

I am waiting for them to go all the way and call the next one "Operation Babalon Working".

[annabanana]

4. talk about arrested development.......

That's the ONLY reason I can figure out for these silly muy macho names. It sounds like 10 year old boys having pissing contests.

5. Operation Phantom Mandate

Oh, wait, that was *last* week. :eyes:

[eleonora]

8. hahaha!

[troubleinwinter]

7. I think they have comic book writers think up these names.

[eleonora]

9. Hmm..if I were Homer, what would I call it?

lol

[koopie57]

10. I think that

naming these battles is the only thing they let georgie do.

[Adams Wulff]

12. My thoughts exactly

nice job

[DrZeeLit]

11. yeah, yeah, but it's the logo and theme music that really...

makes the whole thing work, eh?

Who they got working on the theme? John Williams?


I don't have a t.v., so somebody has to post the logo at least.


(okay, this is SAR casm)

[Adams Wulff]

13. Why don't they just cut to the chase?

and call it "Operation Religious Crusade".

[Jersey Devil]

14. Sounds like a Schwinn bike I owned once

You know, the one with the chrome fenders.

[PretzelWarrior]

15. Operation Faith Based Initiative

pray like hell this mother of all sh!tstorms doesn't completely fail.

[00Scoots]

16. Why don't they call it what it is?

Operation: We dropped flyers removing all guilt from us killing civilians that don't flee the city.

[Straight Shooter]

17. They disregarded my suggestions: "Hallelujah Fallujah" or "Ghost Tantrum"

Do you think the people in charge of making up these names wet their pants when they come up with something like "Phantom Fury"?

edit: my typing is worthless tonight

[PurityOfEssence]

18. Sheer idiocy

Operation Ghostly Anger? Operation Poltergeist Rage?

What is going on with the superstitious haters who run our foreign policy? The right has always had an edge with campaigning, marshalling the downtrodden and crushing all opposition, but they're poetically tone-deaf and it shows.

[eleonora]

22. Oh no... operation "holy ghost fury"

-pukes-

[PurityOfEssence]

26. dingdingding

You win! That's great.

[JudyM]

19. that should be the name of OUR operation in bringing the fraud to light

[MissB]

20. It is a vacuum cleaner, people.

Seriously. They named this operation after a *vacuum cleaner*.

[PurityOfEssence]

23. Yes, Mr. Wormold, you are Our Man in Havana

Pure fantasyland.

[eleonora]

25. the spelling's different but there is a vacuum cleaner called fantom fury

just checked, so I'm letting you know

[eleonora]

24. dude you're right

the spelling's different but wow..that's almost insulting

[Comadreja]

21. Sounds like a video game...eom
