Entry: Christmas on the West Bank Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/christmas_on_the_west_bank#11697 Post contents: Here’s a parlor-game favorite for this kind of shindig: If a guest makes a faux pas – punish ALL the guests. I know what you’re thinking: There is no justice in collective punishment. Know what? Who gives a damn? This is (for the purposes of the game! Haw!) the Middle East, and the guests are in a home that has been your’s “since time immemorial…” (Actually, you got it a few decades ago after threatening to burn down the house if the then-invader/homeowner didn’t turn it over to you.) Oh… and when I say “punish” your guests, I mean punish “with severity”. Bulldoze their homes, destroy their crops, bomb them, snipe their children... grind them into paste. Never let them forget the boot heel on their necks. You’re the boss. They are… well… cattle. Fun, huh? Sent at: 2008 10 07
