Nato should get in vogue like Madonna, defence analyst says

“Her chart-topping talent for reinvention has inspired the makeovers of Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Kylie Minogue, and now Madonna has been proposed as an unlikely role model for Nato.”

Personally - I would rather have wisdom teeth removed than listen to Madonna or Britney Spears but the ability of a musical identity to remake their image can surely be about as closely related to NATO’s ability to restructure itself as is a lost puppy to a raging bull. The metaphor might work if it were not for the fact that the referents were so distantly related - NATO and Madonna. The particular academic in question may have been part of the secret LSD tests that most governments are said to have carried out at one time or another. How else could one come up with such a mind-numbing comparison ?

In any case - it is perhaps illustrative of the dearth of genuine and substantive ideas in the Defence academic community if a pop star’s makeovers are considered to represent a valid model for a strategic reconfiguration of an Alliance.

Anyway - I am sure Sir Elton John would have a lot to say (and offer) about the little shorts that troops train in and I am absolutely positive that Mariah Carey’s voice could be amplified and used as a directed energy weapon...
