Two Arabs boarded a flight out of London. One took a window seat and the
other sat next to him in the middle seat. Just before takeoff, a Marine
sat
down in the aisle seat.
After takeoff, the Marine kicked his shoes off, wiggled his
toes and was settling in when the Arab in the window seat said, "I need
to
get up and get a coke." "Don't get up," said the Marine, "I'm in the
aisle
seat, I'll get it for you."
As soon as he left, one of the Arabs picked up the Marines shoe
and spat in it. When the Marine returned with the coke, the other Arab
said,
"That looks good, I'd really like one, too."
Again, the Marine obligingly went to fetch it. While he was gone the
other
Arab picked up the Marines other shoe and spat in it. When the Marine
returned, they all sat back and enjoyed the flight.
As the plane was landing, the Marine 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 cokes?"
