The NYTimes is reporting this morning that some Swiss soldiers "invaded" Liechtenstein. Apparently the soliders got lost during the night and inadvertently wandered over the Liechtenstein border, fully armed. [NYTimes] I am not one to scoff at a diplomatic catastrophe, but I have to admit this story is pretty damn ridiculous. If what these Swiss idiots did counts as invasion than I am pretty sure plenty of American soldiers have inadvertently "wandered" across the border to say---Lebanon, or Syria or hmm I don't know Iran. Obviously the New York Times, previously a somewhat reputable newspaper is now attempting to lure the semi-comatose CNN readers who demand hard news on such wide ranging topics as how to clean cat fur off your valour furniture and "Brother-sister couple fight incest law." Just so you know, the brother sister monstrosity is an actual story on CNN today.
