打击侵略者

古今中外事,都付笑谈中。

有一部关于抗美援朝时期的电影,片名是《打击侵略者》,说的是美国入侵朝鲜,招到志愿军的打击。"侵略"一词英文是invasion(动词invade),"侵略者"就是invaders。我有时候琢磨,美军到朝鲜打仗,中国称为侵略。那中国军队去朝鲜作战,是否也是侵略?  当然,中国用的名称是志愿军--受北朝鲜之邀中国军队自愿去朝鲜作战;可是美军也同样是受南朝鲜之邀"自愿"去朝鲜作战,他们也可以称为"自愿军"吗?

当然,这只是对"侵略"这个政治词语开个小玩笑。

其实,对"入侵"英文还有另一个词:  intrusion(动词intrude),这样的"入侵者"叫intruder。一般国与国之间的入侵者用invaders,但对撬门溜锁、夜猫子进宅这类的民宅入侵者,我们叫他为intruder。

今天的新闻故事里就有这么一位intruder:

Ore. woman, 88, gives naked intruder the 'squeeze'

The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office said an 88-year-old woman fended off a naked intruder by grabbing the man's crotch and squeezing. Deputy Paul McRedmond said the man got into the house Tuesday through a sliding door. The woman was in her bathrobe early when she encountered assailant.  He backed the woman into her living room and pushed her face down onto a chair.

The women proceeded to reach behind her and grab Dick's crotch before "giving him a good squeeze", Deputy Paul McRedmond of the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office said.

McRedmond said a county code enforcement officer who heard the police call on his radio spotted a car near the woman's house and passed on the license information to authorities.

Troutdale police arrested a 46-year-old man. He has been jailed on accusations of burglary, harassment and private indecency. Bail was set at $110,000.

Multinomah县警长办公室说,有个88岁的老奶奶打跑了一位裸体入侵者,所用方法是,揪主案犯的老二使劲挤压。

这位倒霉蛋是从一扇滑动们进来的,他把老奶奶逼进了卧室,并把她脸冲下压在椅子上。

这时,老奶奶伸手从后抓住了这人的命根并使劲挤压。案犯(因受制)只能挣脱了老奶奶跑了。

正巧有位搞县建筑规范的执法员在收音机里听到警察的呼叫并在老奶奶家附近看到一辆车,他把记住的车号报给了警局(authorities)。警察由此拘留了这位46岁的男人,他被控犯有偷盗、性骚扰和猥亵罪,保释费是11万美元。

这也算是一出"老奶奶狠狠打击入侵者"的好戏。
