Chris DeBurgh was right: Don’t pay the ferryman until he gets you to the other side

(SECRET ISRAELI NUCLEAR SPY SUB)
CAPTAIN: Are our missiles ready to launch against Mecca, Medinah, Cairo, Damascus, Tehran, and Southfield Hills?
FIRST MATE: Aye aye, Captain.
THUD
CAPTAIN: What was that?
FIRST MATE: Heck if I know. But our hatch doors are damaged.
CAPTAIN: Return to base at once.
FIRST MATE: Shouldn’t we fix the hatches and fire the missiles?
CAPTAIN: Of course not. I’m out of horseradish for my gefilte fish.
FIRST MATE: Aye aye, Captain.
CONVERSATION ENDS
DESTROY TRANSCRIPT UPON RECEIPT


By the way, the Egyptians rejected the Israeli Navy’s offer for help.
Hope Allah’s got plenty of dry towels, because that just means more wet martyrs arriving at his doorstep.

  1. Yep, it’s usually a mechanical problem with one of the ramps or cargo hatches, but these things seem to drop on a regular basis. The same company had one that sank around a year ago (I think) that had a cargo hatch pop open in moderate seas. The ship filled and sank, but the death toll was nothing like this time.

  2. Okay. That linked article shows just how screwed up a region the Middle East is and how crappy their culture of violence is.
    They HAD to have RIOT POLICE on hand for mourners just in case VIOLENCE broke out.
    Jesus! Can’t these people do anything without the urge to hurt or damage something? Happy? Fire a gun in the air! Angry? Fire a gun at someone! Hungry? Where’s my AK-47?
    Now I’m not one to seriously consider nuking innocent civilians, but maybe these Arab/Egyptian/Persian bastards need a nuclear smackdown to straighten them out. Just like Japan! I’m sure Israel might be happy to help.
