“Justice is just ice.”

-General P. Ublic

Today, the ministry of defence and offence has issued a statement that shocked the world and provoked a public outcry.

The chief minister quoted the famous General Ublic but has allegedly twisted it to his own purposes. Many of the community leaders have stood up and condemned him for his careless use of the famous speech and ’sullying the good name of the hero General Ublic’.

“It is just unthinkable… Thoughtless!” said a man from the ministry, who would rather not be named but was in a ‘close, working relationship’ with the chief minister.

The chief minister claims in a press conference that he was quoted quoting out of context. “Quoting me quoting a quote without quoting the purpose (of) my quoting is not correct quoting and is … ‘misquotatious’.”

The ministry has advised the press to not quote his quotations during the statement to prevent inciting further unrest. It is also prohibiting any attempt to spread knowledge of the statement or draw attention to previously published articles about the statement.

“National Security may be at stake,” said a spokesman of the government.
