The Common Thread of Attacks

So, bee colony collapse in the United States might be the fault of the Australians:

Disease-carrying honeybees imported from Australia may be responsible for a mysterious disorder that's decimated bee hives around the country, and federal regulators say they'd consider import restrictions if necessary.

By some estimates, beekeepers in the past several years have lost from a third to half their hives to what's called colony collapse disorder. Each hive, or colony, can contain as many as 100,000 bees. The bees are disappearing from the hives never to be seen again.

Add this to the "British Petroleum" oil assault on our Gulf coast.
 
Don't forget the South African vuvuzela assault on our central nervous system at the World Cup.
 
Do I have to even remind you of the Canadian victory over our team in men's ice hockey at the Olympics?
 
Wake up, people! It's a full Commonwealth assault on America!
 
Keep an eye on the New Zealanders. They're small--but scrappy.
