According to a BBC report, the US envoy to the UN stormed out of a UN Security Council meeting, apparently in outrage (shock or awe). Photos of a tearful Susan Rice merged soon after, leading to an worldwide outcry.

Still sobbing, the US envoy to the UN managed to convey the reason for her tears: the Russian and Chinese envoys managed to veto a resolution condemning Syria. “Those bastards are killing people on the streets” she muttered, raising her fist to the sky.

Meanwhile, a puzzled drunk Russian and a tiny yellow thing were staring in disbelief. “We thought she would like our veto” declared the Russian “we really don’t understand, I thought the US was protecting the sovereign right of any nation to kill people on the street”.

Meanwhile, president Obama insisted on clarifying Susan’s outburst. “I am deeply sorry for the confusion. As an American, I must say I am surprised to see anyone else use the power of veto in the UN Security Council. We really thought we were the only ones! Nobody else ever uses *that*!”
