There are times when I wish I could take the speaker's head in my hands and bang it repeatedly against a hard surface:

"The Army says the discharged linguists were casualties of their own failure to meet a known policy. "We have standards," said Harvey Perritt, a spokesman for the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command at Fort Monroe, Va. "We have physical standards, academic standards. There's no difference between administering these standards and administering 'don't ask, don't tell.' The rules are the rules."

Does anyone know how to say, "WE'RE IN A FUCKING WAR HERE" in Arabic?
