Peace Drone


"Artist" Axel Berchensbauer's alternative to civilised people defending themselves against barbarians:  Make us look like effete dimwits in front of the barbarians.

One visit of this and the Taliban will be shopping for carpet designs for the White House.

On the other hand, if you are capable of raining flaming death on your foe while looking like a grinning pink jackass, that's got to be that much more demoralizing.

His Presidential Podiumobile would definitely appeal to The One. His own personal, mobile mountaintop He can stand on to scream incoherent commands at everybody from, wherever He goes.

Complete with enough firepower to obliterate anyone who doesn't jump fast enough. Or just can't figure out what He's talking about. Saving Him the trouble of conjuring thunderbolts.

Other than these two bits of inspired idiocy, what's this guy's thing with the Orthodox cross, anyway? Not to mention the Large Economy Size of the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch?

cheers

I have to agree with Sergej, there's definitely a part of me that likes the idea of military hardware that looks like some psychotic prop from a Tim Burton movie

Reducing your enemies to helpless laughter was never a very effective tactic.

Hmmm . . . the drone is described as "delivering clouds of oxycontin." Which is apparently " A beautiful American drug described as a pharmaceutical grade heroin."

So it's really a gas attack with a smiley face.

It does sound more like one of the Joker's plans to hold Gotham to ransom.

Obviously, it'll be vulnerable to SAMs with stylised bat silhouettes on the side...

Intelligence reports many of the Taliban suffer from Coulrophobia.
