| Two Arabs boarded a flight out of New York. One sat in
the window seat and the other sat in the middle seat.
Just before takeoff, an American got on and took the aisle
seat.
After takeoff, the American kicked his shoes off, wiggled
his toes and was settling in when the Arab in the window
seat said, "I think I'll get up and get a beer"
"No problem," said the American, "I'll get it for you."
While he was gone, one of the Arabs picked up the
American's shoe and spat in it. When he returned with the
beer, the other Arab said, "That looks good, I
think I'll have one too."
Again, the American obligingly went to get it and while he
was gone, the other Arab picked up the other shoe and spat
in it. When the American returned to his seat, they all
sat back and enjoyed the flight.
As the plane was landing, the American slipped his feet
into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened. He
looked at the two Arabs and asked, "Why does it have to be
this way? How long must this go on? This fighting
between our nations? This hatred? This animosity? This
spitting in shoes and pissing in beers?"
