Newest conflict euphemism: "We are pressurizing [Qaddafi's] forces."
I heard this from a U.S. commander, as reported by NPR. I can hear it now: "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, my client is not guilty of murder, he was just pressurizing the victim."
I just love war-speak. How about this: "What happened to my Goldfish? You didn't feed it did you?"
"I just pressurized it a bit."
