Other zany comparisons to serious things

I think I've figured out what the Israel-Palestine situation reminds me of:
Bloody Kansas with a major Soweto angle.

Also, since we've yet again killed Al Qaeda's #3 (for what appears to be the Nth time), that whole mess and how we treat it reminds me of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. (SPecial Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion).

I'm not sure that we should pretend that either
a) our enemies are really evil geniuses who can be numbered in their importance or command structure
b) that they can be defeated by a single guy with a British (or Scottish, as it happens) accent and a few throwaway puns.
Hell Homer Simpson tackled him for Scorpio, how great can he be?

While we're at it
