Translation

The story above is about the 14 Palestinian deaths which have occured during shelling of the Gaza Strip by Israel in the last couple of months. But what I wanted to focus on was translating some of the world wide commentary made regarding this issue.

Russia:
(Statement from Yahoo! News): ...roundly condemned the Israeli actions in Gaza, saying it was deeply shocked by an "unacceptable" and "disproportionate" use of force.

(Translation): Doesn't anyone want any parts for nuclear weapons? Just talk to Iran! Sony guts!

France:
(Statement from Yahoo! News):... condemned the air raids as a "disproportionate," and warned against a spiral of violence in the region. A statement issued by the French foreign ministry "called on the two sides for restraint," and expressed condolences to the families of the Palestinian victims.

(Translation) Doesn't anyone want to surrender?

Egypt:
(Statement from Yahoo! News):...condemned the Israeli action as unacceptable.

(Translation): Whatever, we just want our slaves back. Our orders of Pyramids is piling up like a mutha over here!

Spain:
(Statement from Yahoo! News):...expressed its "opposition to the use of force as a means of solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."

(Translation): Hello! Does anyone still notice us? You know we used to have an empire!

USA:
(Statement from Yahoo! News): ...reaffirmed Israel's "right to defend itself," but said it should consider "the consequences of its actions."

(Translation): Please ignore Iraq, please ignore Iraq, please ignore Iraq, please ignore Iraq, please ignore Iraq...
