Glenn doesn't understand satire

He links to peaceinourtime.blogspot.com with: "ANOTHER PEACEBLOG DEBUTS with much fanfare. (Well, if an email begging for a link counts as "fanfare.") Personally, I don't find it very persuasive, but you can decide for yourself."

According to the new blog:

But that's where the power of Blogger comes in. We can do the work of organizing for the people of Iraq! I propose that on February 20th at 6 pm Bagdad time, the Iroquois stage a nationwide public demonstration indicating whether they want an invasion or not. If enough of my fellow bloggers pick up this call for solidarity (especially if Instapundit tells that Iraqi blogger he posts stuff from), I'm sure we can get the word out and the people of Iraq can make their will known (we certainly know that Saddam's people will be counting the crowds carefully).

So stand up and be counted, people of Iraq! Rise up and be free! Remember, we bloggers are out here for you!

I think it's a satire. Maybe Glenn is having us all on.

UPDATE: After reading more of it, I'm pretty darn sure it's a satire, albeit a little heavy-handed. Just don't tell anyone, let's see if A.N.S.W.E.R. will give it a link.

Sure, you SAY heavy-handed. You should see all the email I got attempting to correct my mistake by telling me the President of England's name was really Neville Chamberlain. Or Richard Chamberlain.

First rule of internet satire: it is IMPOSSIBLE to be too obvious.
