Beer

Two Arabs boarded a flight out
of New York after a hockey game.
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 fetch the beer and while
he was gone the other Arab picked
up the American's 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 .

"Why does it have to be this way?"
he asked.

"How long must this go on?

This fighting between our nations?

This hatred?

This animosity?

This spitting in shoes, and pissing in beers?
