"I am angry...and you have the nerve to ask why I am so angry that I am willing to let you take my picture wielding this rusty piece of camel dung like some kind of sword? Well, I will tell you why!"
"We are Khadaffi supporters coming to fight the rebels when, being desperate for water, we saw something far off in the distance. Hoping to find water, we hurried toward what appeared to be an oasis, only to find a little old Jewish man at a small stand selling ties."
"'We asked this man, "Do you have water, you Zionist pig?"'
"'The man replied, "I have no water. But would you like to buy a tie? They are only 5 dinars."'
'"We shouted at him, "You idiotic son of a wilderness wandering whore! We do not need an over-priced tie. We need water! We should kill you right now, you odious pile of donkey excrement, but we must find water first!"'
'"OK," said the little old man calmly, "It does not matter that you do not want to buy a fine tie and that you hate me. I will show you that I am bigger than that. If you continue over that hill to the east for about twenty miles, you will find a lovely restaurant. It has all the ice cold water you can ever want. Shalom."'
"Cursing, we drove away to find this water....and now we are angry and driving back to see the old Jewish man because his whore-mongering brother won't let us in without a tie!"
