Norm is angry that people are enjoying themselves by attending a play satirising the Blair-Bush relationship while there's so much else wrong in the world. After the horror of the last few days (Israel, Russia), guess who these people are angry at?

But Norm, guess who helps keep the Middle East aflame with weapons? And guess who supports Putin's shameful policy in Chechnya?

Incidentally, the "horror" of the past few days has ample recent precedent. Najaf, occupied Palestine, Chechnya etc? Would it have been inappropriate to enjoy a play mercilessly satirising bin Laden while all this was going on?
