Guess this was never translated into German...
The Little Red Hen
One summer day the Little Red Hen found a grain of wheat.
"A grain of wheat!" said the Little Red Hen to herself. "I will plant it."
She asked the duck: "Will you help me plant this grain of wheat?"
"Not I," said the duck.
She asked the goose: "Will you help me plant this grain of wheat?"
"Not I," said the goose.
She asked the cat: "Will you help me plant this grain of wheat?"
"Not I," said the cat.
She asked the pig: "Will you help me plant this grain of wheat?"
"Not I," said the pig.
"Then I will plant it myself," said the Little Red Hen.
And she did.
Soon the wheat grew tall, and the Little Red Hen knew it was time to reap it.
"Who will help me reap the wheat?" she asked.
"Not I," said the duck.
"Not I," said the goose.
"Not I," said the cat.
"Not I," said the pig.
"Then I will reap it myself," said the Little Red Hen.
And she did.
So she reaped the wheat, and it was ready to take to the mill to be made into flour.
"Who will help me carry the wheat to the mill?" she asked.
"Not I," said the duck.
"Not I," said the goose.
"Not I," said the cat.
"Not I," said the pig.
"Then I will carry it myself," said the Little Red Hen.
And she did.
So she carried the wheat to the mill and the miller made it into flour, and she carried the flour home.
When she got there, she asked, "Who will help me make the flour into dough?"
"Not I," said the duck.
"Not I," said the goose.
"Not I," said the cat.
"Not I," said the pig.
"Then I will make the dough myself," said the Little Red Hen.
And she did.
So she put on a white apron, and mixed the dough. Soon the bread was ready to go into the oven.
"Who will help me bake the bread?" said the Little Red Hen.
"Not I," said the duck.
"Not I," said the goose.
"Not I," said the cat.
"Not I," said the pig.
"Then I will bake it myself," said the Little Red Hen.
And she did.
After the loaf had been taken from the oven it was set on the table to cool.
"And now," said the Little Red Hen, "who will help me to eat the bread?"
"I will!" said the duck.
"I will!" said the goose.
"I will!" said the cat.
"I will!" said the pig.
"No, I will eat it myself!" said the Little Red Hen.
And she did.

"The United Nations must remain in the driver's seat," Fischer's spokesman Walter Lindner said earlier.
The UN should not be allowed to even touch this car, let alone get inside and sit in the drivers seat.

"The United Nations must remain in the driver's seat,"Ah, sorry fellas, you were offered a seat in the front, you refused it, and we already have the back seat full of democrats.

I'm more than sick of the krauts, french & russians on this. I'm beginning to think the US should run Iraq for a while, just to keep the foxes outta the hen house!
To: yonif
Hey UN, Kiss my lily white A$$, you have no rights to anything, not only do you NOT belong in the driver seat, you just got run over by the car that we are driving!!!
Your stupidity, arrogance, and socialistic tendencies and total failures in anything and EVERYTHING that you touch, means that you should be tossed onto the ashheap of history and forgotten.
The democracies need to put together a new UN,l one that will actually work.
If you are a dictator, a socialism, or a communism, you are not welcome. If you do not have the military might to defend your own country, you are NOT wanted, if your military spending is less then 1% of your GNP, then you can kiss off.
We are in the driver seat, and we are gonna back up and run your little butt over again!!!
And I say we keep doing it until there is NO chance of resuscatation.

That's the problem, the UN has never been in the driver's seat. They have been in the back seat with the Leftist cabal holding their foot on the break.

"We hope the regime will collapse as soon as possible and we'll have no further loss of life civilians or soldiers," Fischer said before a meeting with his British counterpart, Jack Straw at a luxury hotel in Berlin's Grunewald suburb."
I think they mistranslated from the German. What he was really saying was:
"Were really sorry we can't sell anymore high tech material to nutcase Saddam and his lunatic henchmen right now. And so, we hope that a new government is in place as soon as possible so we and our new French and Russian Friends can have markets for our technological material in return for Iraqi petrodollars. It could be just like old times again except with a different buyer. After all, Colin Powell wants to get along with his old allies doesn't he?? Just as the U.S. State Department. They'll tell you!!!"

Why don't we hear more about Mr. Fischer's past as a street hoodlum and violent extreme left-wing agitator. He was involved in a demonstration in 1976 where a policeman was severely injured in a fire bomb attack. He was detained at the time of the demonstration but released shortly afterwards.
Fischer has always claimed that he had nothing to do with the Molotov cocktail. According to witnesses, the the day before the demo, Fischer called for Molotov cocktails to be used.
Fischer claims in an interview with the Spiegel magazine - which shows pictures of Fischer beating a policeman in 1973 - that he never called for the use of fire bombs (does anyone have access to these photos? I've seen them once before, and would like a copy).
The pictures also show Fischer fighting side by side with Hans-Joachim Klein, the former terrorist and accomplice of Carlos the Jackal who is currently on trial in Frankfurt for murder thanks to his role in an attack on an OPEC meeting in Vienna in 1975, in which Klein is accused of having murdered three men. Fischer, an old friend of Klein's, appeared in court as a witness for Klein.
Fischer's claims that he had nothing to do with the Molotov cocktails have been rejected by two people in the know. The former left-wing extremist and biographer of Fischer, Christian Schmidt, has said, "There is only one man who could have avoided the predictable disaster and that man was the man who directed the discussion, Comrade Fischer personally. But he seemed not to care and called for the use of the wonder weapon."
Even more dramatic have been the accusations against Fischer by the daughter of his former idol Ulrike Meinhof, Bettina Röhl. Ms Röhl has accused Fischer of calling for the use of Molotov cocktails. She has written an open letter to the president of the Republic, accusing Mr. Fischer of attempted murder. She alleges that the Molotov cocktail attacks were specifically planned by Fischer as a protest against what the extreme left was convinced was Ulrike Meinhof's murder. [La Repubblica, 9th January 2001)
The Foreign Minister has now spoken on the telephone with a retired policeman, Rainer Marx, whom Fischer beat to the ground and stamped on in one of these demonstrations, and has apologized to him for what he did.
The German Chancellor, Gerhard Schröder, has been forced onto the defensive, saying that Mr. Fischer is a "very good representative" of Germany's interests abroad. However, the plot has continued to thicken as documents relating to the extreme left-wing past of Joschka Fischer have now been discovered to have gone missing from the offices of the department for the protection of the state in Frankfurt. The documents were requested by the Land government of Hesse (of which Frankfurt is the capital) in 1985 - a government of which the environment minister was none other than Joschka Fischer. [Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 9th January 2001]

OK, but does he support the removal of the Berlin Wall?
To: yonif
NOW he supports regime change??? NOW??? WHY NOW???
To tell the truth, I could care less WHAT Fischer supports, when he supports it, or whether or not his underpinnings are supportive enough for him.
It's too late for the firebombing, viscious little greenie to change tune now.

Fischer was so rude to Rummy at the NATO Conference before the war. He is a socialist, commie, pig. I wanted Rummy to whip his A$$, or I would certainly like to.
These whining carpers are trying to backpedal in order to get some rebuilding contracts. Sorry Joscha, it won't work you loser.
