THE MESSAGE
How easy it is to put hatred on a map
By Robert Fisk
----------------
Our guilt in this sectarian game is obvious. We want to divide our potential enemies - Published The Independent (UK) –

Why are we trying to divide up the peoples of the Middle East? Why are we trying to chop them up, make them different, remind them - constantly, insidiously, viciously, cruelly - of their divisions, of their suspicions, of their capacity for mutual hatred? Is this just our casual racism? Or is there something darker in our Western souls? read more

AND… FOR THE KIDDIES
Don’t take without Permission
Little Fathima and her cousin both lived in one house. During the day they played together and often got up to mischief. One day as they played in Fathima’s room, they found a little bar of chocolate.

They loved chocolate and decided to share it they didn’t ask Fathima’s mother if they could eat it. This was wrong of them as one should never take anything without permission. They tore off the wrapper and found two pieces of chocolate inside. They each ate a piece.

A little while later they began to feel strange. Their tummies began to cramp and they had to make many visits to the toilet. Their mother’s became worried as their children seemed to have diarrhea.

When Fathima’s mother came across the chocolate wrapper, she asked them if they had eaten the chocolate. They were frightened but admitted that they had. She scolded them for eating it without permission.

She told them that what they had eaten, looked like a chocolate but was a laxative – a medicine that cleaned the tummy. It could have been dangerous.

Luckily they soon felt better. They had learnt an important lesson. One should always ask permission before taking anything.

THE SMILE
A young man was having some money problems, and needed $200 to get his car fixed and road-worthy again. But had run out of people to borrow from. So, he calls his parents via the operator, and reverses the charge and says to his dad;
“I need to borrow two hundred dollars.”
At the other end, his father says; “Sorry, I can't hear you, son, I think there may be a bad line.”
The boy shouts, “Two hundred. I need two hundred dollars!”
“Sorry, I still can't hear you clearly;” says his father.
The operator cuts in; “Sorry to butt in, but I can hear him perfectly.”
The father says; “Oh, good. YOU send him the money!”
