I just pulled this off a guns/hunting political forum and thought it was an interesting analogy. Is there any truth in it?

What happens when a fly falls into a coffee cup ?

The Italian - throws the cup and walks away in a fit of rage

The Frenchman - takes out the fly, and drinks the coffee

The Chinese - eats the fly and throws away the coffee

The Russian - drinks the coffee with the fly, since it was extra with no charge

The Israeli - sells the coffee to the Frenchman, the fly to the Chinese, buys himself a new cup of coffee and uses the extra money to invent a Device that prevents flies from falling into coffee.

The Palestinian - blames the Israeli for the fly falling into his coffee, protests the act of aggression to the UN, takes a loan from the European Union for a new cup of coffee, uses the money to purchase explosives and then blows up the coffee house where the Italian, the Frenchman, the Chinese, and the Russian are trying to explain to the Israeli why he should
give away his cup of coffee to the Palestinian.

Was the coffee shop owned by an Israeli and built on occupied land?

The American: Complains to the manager, demands a refund, a free replacement cup of coffee and four free cheeseburgers. Whilst waiting for the burgers, he calls his lawyer to initiate legal action against the coffee shop, the manufacturers of the cup and the coffee machine, the coffee suppliers and growers, the fly, insects in general.

The Englishman: Complains bitterly to the customer sitting next to him, removes the fly but does not drink the coffee. When the waitress comes over and asks, he smiles and says everything is fine, even though he had ordered tea, not coffee. He then complains to another customer about the shocking service.

...


Or in other words, no. There's not really any useful truth in it.

More likely the Palestinian throws the coffee at the Israeli and misses causing Israel to respond by bombing the gaza strip and building a bunch of new settlements on the west bank as a result of palestinian aggression.
