Saddam and Bush: Saddam Hussein called President Bush and said, “George, I had a wonderful dream last night. I could see America, the whole country, and on each house I saw a banner.”

“What did it say on the banners?” Mr. Bush asked.

Saddam replied, “LONG LIVE SADDAM HUSSEIN.”

Mr. Bush responded, “You know, Saddam, I am really happy you called. Last night I had a similar dream. I could see all of Baghdad, and it was more beautiful than ever. It had been rebuilt completely, and on each house flew an enormous banner.”

“What did the banners say?” Saddam asked.

“I don’t know,” replied Mr. Bush, “I can’t read Hebrew.” (Thanks to the About Judaism page for that one.)
