Following the events in London in recent weeks the French government<br />announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from<br />'Run'<br />to<br />'Hide'. <br /><br /><br />The only two higher levels in France are 'Surrender' and<br />'Collaborate'. <br /><br />The rise was precipitated by a recent fire, which destroyed France's<br />white flag factory, effectively paralysing their military. <br /><br />As a response to this the Italians have increased their alert level<br />from <br /><br />"shouting excitedly" to "elaborate military posturing". <br /><br />Two more levels remain, "ineffective combat operations" and "change<br />sides". <br /><br /><br />The Germans have also increased their alert state from "disdainful<br />arrogance" to "full dress-uniform and marching songs". <br /><br />They have two higher levels, "invade a neighbour" and "lose". <br /><br />Seeing this reaction in continental Europe the Americans have gone<br />from "isolationism" to "find somewhere ripe for regime change". <br /><br />Their remaining higher alert states are "take on the world" and "ask<br />the British for help". <br /><br />Finally the British have gone from "pretend nothing's happening" to<br />"make another cup of tea". Our higher levels are "chin-up and remain<br />cheerful"<br />and "win".
