It's hard to know whether to laugh or cry after reading this entry at the Presbyterian News Service: Lutherans urge world community not to cut off aid to Palestinians.
Why? Because their minstry is more important than Israeli childrens' limbs:
“For the ELCJHL and other churches, it threatens our entire ministry,” the church said in its latest monthly newsletter. “The funds to be withheld would come straight out of the pockets of families trying to pay their child’s tuition or support the church. If our families are not paid, less tuition money will come in to the schools, and the cycle spirals down.”...
Not to worry, after all, Hamas is all about social justice. Never was a more clueless paragraph written than this:
And I might start crapping Wedgewood china out my ass any instant.
Not to worry, local Christians, after all, Israel still remains your great Satan:
Well, I'm sure everyone is quite relieved. Well, back to bashing the "Zionists."
The Wedgewood china line was worth the price of admission, glad I wasn't in mid-gulp. It's also - as if it needs to be said - entirely fitting; Wedgewood has never served a more apt and telling literary effort.
"And I might start crapping Wedgewood china out my ass any instant."
ROTFLMAO!
"Hamas leaders have said, however, that they will not impose strict Islamic Sharia law anytime soon."
Or, in the more usual Muslim terms, "Saturday comes before Sunday" ("first we will kill the Jews and then we will kill the Christians.")
