Not sure if this really occurred, but its funny nonetheless..
An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made the world community smile.
A representative from Palestine 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!'
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 Israeli weren't there then.'
The Palestinian representative smiled and said
'And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech.'

More Israeli Brutality
Here's just a glimpse of the type of people that are enforcing the illegal occupation of Palestine.
An Israeli court has convicted two border guards over the unlawful killing of a Palestinian teenager in the West Bank town of Hebron in 2002.
Imran Abu Hamdieh died after the two men, Shahar Botbeka and Denis Alhazov, pushed him from the back of a military vehicle travelling at 50mph (80km/h).
He suffered serious head injuries when members of the border police unit - celebrating the end of their posting in Hebron - made him jump from their jeep as it sped through the streets.
They grabbed several Palestinians off the street and drove them to remote locations to beat them.
As the jeep reached 70-80km an hour, the policemen managed to prise his grip loose, and pushed him out of the vehicle and it sped off.
The Israeli army was unable to provide figures, but the main Israeli human rights group said it had no record of a soldier or policeman being convicted for the killing of a Palestinian.
