ei: What's law got to do with it?

Following in the gender-bending footsteps of Israel's award-winning pop diva, Dana International, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon will don a full Tina Turner wig, a black suede miniskirt, and fishnet stockings to perform a new twist on a 1980s hit song at next year's EuroVision contest.

In the intro to a new rock video featuring Sharon in drag, the hardline PM gushes with gratitude, saying: "I'd like to dedicate this ballad to the leaders of all those states that refused to sign the Rome Treaty establishing the International Criminal Court, and to all those High Contracting Parties to the Geneva Conventions who continue to grant the Israeli Defense Forces a free pass to smash the hell out of International Humanitarian Law in the Occupied Terroritories.

We could never have done so much harm without you! Thanks to all of you guys -- and you know who you are!"

Arik, Girlfriend -- You rock! Knock 'em dead!

Here are the lyrics to the song:

WHAT'S LAW GOT TO DO WITH IT?

YOU MUST UNDERSTAND
OCCUPYING THEIR LAND
MAKES MY PULSE REACT.
AND IT`S REALLY A THRILL
THAT THE STONES THEIR KIDS HURL
FORCE US TO ATTACK.

IT`S CRIMINAL,
YET KINDA BIBLICAL.
ANNAN MUST TRY TO IGNORE
THAT IT MEANS MORE THAN THAT!

[CHORUS]
OH-OH!
WHAT'S LAW GOT TO DO
GOT TO DO WITH IT?
WHAT`S LAW,
BUT SOME WIMPY LEFTIST NOTION?
WHAT`S LAW
GOT TO DO
GOT TO DO WITH IT?
WHO NEEDS A HEART
WHEN THERE'S ARMS TO BE BROKEN?

IT MAY SEEM TO YOU
THAT I ACTED CONFUSED
WHEN BELGIUM LOOKED AT ME.

IF I TEND TO LOOK DAZED
OY VEY, DON'T BE AMAZED --
I`VE GOT CAUSE TO BE!

BLOOD IS ON MY HANDS.
AND I GRABBED ALL THEIR LANDS.

BUT THERE'S A PHRASE FOR IT.
OH, HOW I CRAVE FOR IT:
MY IMPUNITY!

[CHORUS]
OH-OH!
WHAT'S LAW
GOT TO DO
GOT TO DO WITH IT?
WHAT`S LAW,
BUT SOME WIMPY LEFTIST NOTION?
WHAT`S LAW
GOT TO DO
GOT TO DO WITH IT?
WHAT DO I CARE?
GEORGE BUSH APPROVES
OF OUR TROOPS' MOTIONS!

I`VE BEEN THINKING OF A NEW DIRECTION
FOR OUR F-16s TO SPRAY
MISSILES FROM WHICH THERE'S JUST NO PROTECTION.
IT SHOULD SCARE YOU WHEN I FEEL THIS WAY!

[CHORUS]
OH-OH!
WHAT'S LAW
GOT TO DO
GOT TO DO WITH IT?
WHAT`S LAW,
BUT SOME WIMPY LEFTIST NOTION?
WHAT`S LAW
GOT TO DO
GOT TO DO WITH IT?
WHO NEEDS A CEASEFIRE?
THERE'S STILL HEADS TO BE BROKEN!
