Sarah Palin Calls for Invasion of Czech Republic
Apr. 22, 2013


Sarah Palin called for the invasion of the Czech Republic today in response to the recent terrorist attacks in Boston.

In an interview with Fox News, the former governor of Alaska said that although federal investigators have yet to complete their work, the time for action is now.

"We don't know everything about these suspects yet," Palin told Fox and Friends this morning, referring to Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, who allegedly carried out the Boston Marathon attacks. "But we know they were Muslims from the Czech Republic......"more at the link of course.

OMG! So THIS is why the Czech Ambassador is giving us [what shouldn't be] a [well-needed] geography lesson!

Czech Republic Forced to Remind the Internet that Chechnya Is a Different Country After Boston Bombing

“War,” Ambrose Bierce said, “is God’s way of teaching Americans geography.” But despite all the lessons learned during the long-running War on Terror, Americans could probably use a little more instruction. The Czech Embassy issued a statement following the attacks to clarify that the two Boston bombing suspects actually traced their roots to Chechnya, not the Czech Republic, after waves of anti-Czech rhetoric swamped social media.

Palin is a very smart woman. She would never say such drivel.

i realize it is satire. that is why it is spelled daily CURRANT...

however it is good enough that millions thought it was real. and it is not far off many of her other gaffes re geography and jumping the gun reactions.

so, very good satire.

the fact that many people have not noticed the difference between chechnya and czechoslovakia is not satire though, and the czech president pointing it out is real too.

edit: this was a satirical post.

The Arabians need to learn that they can't keep comin' over here and blowing stuff up. Let's set off a couple of nukes in Islamabad, burn down Prague, then bomb the heck out of Tehran. We need to show them that we mean business."

we have heard this sort of rhetoric from palin, romney and some of our own posters here.

So true... especially the jumping the gun !! It appears millions did believe it and shame faced, edited their tweets/comments

The article I posted didn't refer to Palin. It just talked about social media getting it wrong.

I don't know that she's too smart for that, however, Randall.

I know AG, I was reading that it occurred and had a chuckle over it.

It certainly sounded plausible.
