Translation from NewSpeak

Per the Guardian --

NewSpeak version:

"Nobody wants to see a conflict on the Korean peninsula. ..." Obama said.

English translation:

"I'm working overtime to get a war going on the Korean peninsula, but I have to make it look like it was forced on me," Obama said.

NewSpeak version:

DIA assesses with moderate confidence the North currently has nuclear weapons capable of delivery by ballistic missiles. However, the reliability will be low.

English translation:

The DIA has been ordered to produce "intelligence" sufficiently scary to serve as justification for an attack on North Korea, but not so scary that millions of Californians panic, stuff all their belongings in the trunks of their cars, and drive like hell for Nevada.
