40 Tanks, APC's and those big armoured bulldozers parked in Yasser (yoda)
Arafat's backyard in the West Bank on Good Friday. 'We just dropped in for a neighbourly visit over Easter' said the
operational commander 'we're really sorry about the crashing through the
fence on the way in. These tanks are hard to control, and I guess the boys had
trouble finding the gate.' Later the Israeli Defence Minister, Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, promised to
replace the fountain with the naked woman that they had run over, but was
adamant that the broken garden gnome was not his responsibility. 'Israel is sick of being pushed around like this' he said 'We
didn't break it, and we're not paying. If Arafat wants to go to war over this
- so be it.' The situation got out of control when Palestinian officials pointed out
that demerit points for bad driving were doubled over the Easter break. This
was too much for the Jews, who then declared
outright war on Palestine.
