I saw this on another forum.
A fleeing Taliban, desperate for water, was plodding through the
Afghanistan desert when he saw something far off in the distance. Hoping
to find water, he hurried toward the object only to find a little old
Jew at a small stand selling neckties.
The Taliban asked, "Do you have water?" The Jew replied, "I have no
water. Would you like to buy a tie? They are only $5."
The Taliban shouted, "Idiot! I do not need an overpriced tie. I need
water! I should kill you, but I must find water first."
"OK," said the old Jew, "it does not matter that you don't want to buy a
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 two miles, you will
find a lovely restaurant. It has all the ice cold water you need.
Shalom."
Muttering, the Taliban staggered away over the hill.
Several hours later he staggered back.
"Your fucking brother won't let me in without a tie."
