Now THAT'S funny, Greg! Quote:
Few years back, read a book about a similarly funny little country declaring war called, "The Mouse that Roared". SteveB
Good reference, Steve! 
Also a 1959 british film comedy that made an international star of Peter Sellers, which is also very funny.
For those who've never seen it, in that movie the small Lichtenstein-esque country, The Duchy of Grand Fenwick, being financially broke declares war on the U.S., with the idea that it wants to lose the war so that afterward America will send massive postwar aid to their little country. And ah....and ah....well, I better stop here, 'cuz THIS could turn very ugly, VERY QUICKLY around here in a New York Minute if I go any further with this film's synopsis, and somebody decides to "go all geo-political on us" around here, huh?! 

(just let me add that "T.M.T.R" would make a great double-bill with one of Mr.Sellers' other greatest hits..."Dr.Strangelove")
