President Captured by Ninjas
Unconfirmed reports are beginning to emerge which allege that, according to
a growing number of news agencies, US president
George W. Bush has been captured by ninjas.

Further
details are thin on the ground at this stage. A memo circulated across
Washington, however, has been leaked, which would appear to confirm the
actions.
Officials at the White House have thus far kept quiet
about the revelations, refusing to comment or communicate with news agencies
in the US and abroad. The routine briefing from press secretary Tony Snow has also
been abruptly cancelled with no reason given as to why. Speaking from his
home in Korea, newly appointed UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon appealed
passionately, saying, “…have you got any idea what
time it is here?”
No one has at this stage claimed responsibility for the kidnap, though the
use of ninjas in the attempt would seem to indicate that it could be the
work of Japanese splinter group Edo. This terrorist organisation is widely
known to use ninja as a way of forwarding its causes, and whose ultimate aim
it is alleged is to see a return to policies of the
Kamakura era in Japan (c. 1185 – 1333AD).
It would appear that the US government has enlisted the talents of an
individual mercenary to attempt a rescue of the president. Questions remain,
however, over whether the mystery renegade is a
“bad enough dude” to get the job done.
