WHEN A FLY FALLS INTO A CUP OF COFFEE

——————–fly israel—————-
The Italian – throws the cup against the wall, shatters it, and walks away in a fit of rage shouting…Merde, Stronzo, Minchia.

The German – carefully washes the cup, sterilizes it and makes a new cup of coffee and drinks heartily. “Prosit”

The Frenchman – takes out the fly, and drinks the coffee. “A vote santé”

The Chinese – eats the fly and throws away the coffee. “Kai-wei”

The Russian – Since it was a no charge extra, he drinks the coffee with the fly. “Na zdorovye!”

The Israeli – sells the coffee to the Frenchman, sells the fly to the Chinese, sells the cup to the Italian, drinks a cup of tea, (“L’Chaim”)… and uses the extra money to invent a device that prevents flies from falling into coffee.

The Palestinian – blames the Israeli for the fly falling into his coffee, protests the act of aggression to the UN, takes a loan from the European Union to buy a new cup of coffee, uses the money to purchase explosives and then blows up the coffee house where the Italian, the Frenchman, the Chinese, the German and the Russian are all trying to explain to the Israeli that he should give away his cup of tea to the Palestinian so there will be peace.

And that, my friends, hopefully serves to help explain the Israel/Palestine situation in the Middle East.
