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 walked toward the object, only to discover that it was a little old Jewish man at a small stand selling neckties.
The Taliban asked, "Do you have water?"
The Jewish man replied, "I have no water, I'm sorry. But, would you like to buy a tie? They are only $5.00."
The Arab shouted, "Idiot Jew! Israel should not exist! I do not need an overpriced tie -- I need water, you numbskull! I should kill you, but I must find water first."
"Suit yourself," replied the Jew. "It matters little to me that you do not want to buy a tie and that you hate me. I will help you and forgive your bad attitude. If you continue over that hill to the east for about two miles, you will find a lovely restaurant. It has all the water you need.
Shalom."
Muttering furiously, the Arab staggered away over the hill.
Several hours later he staggered back. "Your brother won't let me in without a tie."[8D]
