Today the DOD announced plans to out source the US Military. A spokesman for the DOD explained. "We have discovered it will be far cheaper to hire other nations military to fight our wars and meet our international commitments. The saving on pensions and medical care will be quite substantial."

The DOD spokesman also said, "As an additional bonus to out sourcing our military we can then sell the Pentagon. Several resort/gaming companies have expressed interest in remodeling the Pentagon and turning it into a gambling casino/theme park. Former members of the disbanded US Military would be able to obtain jobs there as waiters and dealers. None of the upper levels of DOD leadership would of course lose their jobs."

Unnamed sources have said that Cuba, Iran, China, France, North Korea, India, and the UAE have all expressed interest in becoming part of out sourcing for the US Military. The UN hailed the US proposal to out source its military as a major breakthrough in the ongoing WOT.
