The Llap-Goch Doctrine

The basis of the Bush Administration's national security doctrine might be this advert for LLAP-GOCH, the secret Welsh art of self defense that requires no intelligence, strength or physical courage. Some choice points from the advert:

Therefore . . . the BEST way to protect yourself AGAINST any ASSAILANT is to ATTACK him before he attacks YOU . . . Or BETTER . . . BEFORE the THOUGHT of doing so has EVEN OCCURRED TO HIM!!!!

No longer need you feel WEAK, helpless, INDECISIVE NOT fascinating and ASHAMED of your genital dimensions. No more need you be out-manoeuvred in political debate!!

While there is no evidence that the Bush Administration has based their national security doctrine on LLAP-GOCH, the learning technique seems to favor the style of our fearless leader:

You receive ABSOLUTELY FREE your own special personal LLAP-GOCH Picture Book with hundreds of PHOTOGRAPHS and just a very few plain, clear and simple, easy to understand words.

It sounds even easier to read than The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and when done you will fear no man!
