Baghdad Bob, the information minister for Saddam, used the "All your (your noun here) are belong to us" during the few days of the Iraq war.

Um, no. IIRC it was a Japanese official speaking about our bases in Okinawa after some Marines did some bad things to the locals. He wanted to kick us off Japanese soil and claim the land. He was quoted as saying (paraphrased due to the passage of time...), "All your bases are belong to us."
