For those of you who might have forgotten (and those of you still trying to forget), the Yugo is to compact automobiles what the English are to fine dining, the French are to bathing, and radical Muslims are to satire whether the understand the word, or not.
Currently the Wikipedia entry for the Yugo is a bit sparse:
To meet Wikipedia's quality standards and appeal to a wider international audience, this article may require cleanup.The examples and perspective in this article may not represent a worldwide view.
Do tell.
Luckily, I managed to obtain a screen capture before the offending content was brought down, so you don't have to guess what "may not represent a worldwide view."
A larger, more legible (but no more coherent) capture is here.
Apparently, the writer is miffed that U.S. precision bombing isn't as accurate as he thinks it should be, as a U.S. air strike hit the automobile assembly line and not the weapons production lines on the underground floors below the automobile assembly line, or because—drumroll please—the United States was targeting the car assembly line on purpose all along.
Of course we were.
Fear the country that fears your Yugo.
