Boomer...

Om ni önskar läsa något sant om människan,
hennes samhälle och historia ja då får ni här
ett tips: "The Boomer Bible" av R.F Laird.

Det är en tjock, extremt underhållande och
rolig bok om människans historia, skrive i
samma format som bibeln. Den träffar
ack så rätt i nästan alla fall som tas upp,
och dessa är rätt många :-)

Så här skulle man historiskt kunna
sammanfatta konfliten i mellanöstern,
enligt ovan nämnda bok:

After the world war 2, the Hebrews
decided to move back to Israel
2 Or Zion,
3 Or Palestine,
4 Or whatever it was,
5 Which caused problems
6 Because Caanan was this really
beautiful land,
7 Full of sand
8 Which is why all the Arabs feel like
they just can't live without it,
9 Since it goes great with all the other
lands in the near east,
10 Which are also full of sand,
11 As well as oil,
12 Which causes problems too.


"What with sand and other very important
issues like that, the peoples of the near east
decided the only thing to do was kill each other.
2 As much as possible,
3 Forever,
4 And so they did,
5 Some of the killing was for religious reasons,
6 And some of it was for economic reasons,
7 But mostly it was for irreconcilable differences,
8 Since they were all completly and utterly diffrent
from each other,
9 Except for their noses
10 And their love of sand,
11 And their fanatical devotion to their religion,
12 And their consuming desire to annihilate their
enemies,
13 Which were usually everybody else,
14 Including the the Iranians,
15 And the Iraqis,
16 And the Saudis,
17 And the Syrians,
18 And the Jordanians,
19 And the Lebanese,
20 And the Israelis,
21 And the Palestinians,
22 And the Kuwaitis,
23 And the Turks,
24 And a bunch of others too,
25 Except the Indians,
26 Who are too busy hating the Pakistanis to
fight about sand,
27 Ever since Mahatma Gandhi pushed the Brits
out of India,
28 By pretending that Indians were to peace-loving
to hate anybody,
29 Which is only the second or third joke ever
pulled off in the middle east.
