   From the same people who brought you Ilyich 'Carlos' Ramirez's alleged   
   liking for Johnnie Walker Black Label whisky...   
      
   ...the alleged yearning of abducted Israelis in South America for   
   'Dunkin' Donuts'...   
      
   ...and Saddam Hussein's alleged taste for US fast food products 'Seven   
   Up' and 'Mars bars'...   
      
   yes folks...   
      
   those wicked 'Muslim aero-plotters' were allegedly planning to use a   
   "sports drink", or even in some propaganda sources a "British sports   
   drink"...   
      
   I.e. presumably Lucozade.   
      
   How much do you reckon the advertising spend was on this one?   
      
   And oh look, Lebanon gets pushed off the front pages, just as Gaza was.   
      
      
      
      
   Notes   
      
   1) 'Lucozade' is a trademark of GlaxoSmithKline, corporate mass   
   murderers with an HQ in Brentford, London. GSK is the world's second   
   largest pharmaceutical company (after Pfizer) and, like the rest of   
   these scum, they spend huge sums on the creation and manipulation of   
   public opinion....   
      
   2) Don't drink harmful piss! If you want an energising drink, just STIR   
   SOME GLUCOSE AND SALT INTO SOME WATER. If you're really into calibrating   
   something that's hypotonic to such-and-such an extent, work out the   
   amounts and proportion you'll need. If you want, add some flavour with a   
   squirt of lemon, and/or some ordinary sugar. Stay off the carbonated   
   piss, artificial sweeteners, colouring agents, etc. Recently I watched   
   someone buy Vitamin C tablets containing aspartame and I thought 'fuck'.

   banana     "The thing I hate about you, Rowntree, is the way you   
               give Coca-Cola to your scum, and your best teddy-bear to   
               Oxfam, and expect us to lick your frigid fingers for the   
               rest of your frigid life." (Mick Travis, 'If...', 1968)
