AWOL

President Trump,
known to his friend Putin
as Agent Orange,
has proposed a 100% import duty
on foreign films
- which few Americans watch
because subtitles are too onerous for them.

It is over 100 years since Hollywood
started glitz-and-plush-bombing the world
with the American Way Of Life.

50 years  have passed since the end
of the American 'presence' in Viêt-Nam,
and of the 'carpet bombing', and the spraying
across great swathes of countryside of
dioxin-rich herbicide Agent Orange*,
whose toxic effects
will last at least another 50 years.

*Agent Orange was first used as a weapon of war in the 1950s
by the British in Malaya.
