[Ben forwarded this ingenious example of speech and politics that occurred
in the United Nations Assembly and made the world community smile.]
A representative from Israel began: ‘Before beginning my talk I want to tell
you something about Moses. When he struck the rock and it brought forth
water, he thought, “What a good opportunity to have a bath!”
Moses removed his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water.
When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Palestinian
had stolen them!
The Palestinian representative at the UN jumped up furiously and shouted,
“What are you talking about? The Palestinians weren’t there then.”
The Israeli representative smiled and said, “And now that we have made that
clear, I will begin my speech.”
