An ingenious example of speech
and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made
the world community smile.
The Palestinian Representative's Speech at the UN
'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!'
He 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.
An Israeli had stolen them.'
The Israeli representative jumped up furiously and shouted, 'What
are you talking about? The Israelis weren't there then.'
|
The Palestinian representative smiled and said:
'And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech.'
BRILLIANT!!!!
