Curmudgeonly & Skeptical: With a twist

With a twist

The Afganistan Ambassador to the U.N. has just finished giving a speech, and walks out into the lobby where he meets his American counterpart.

They shake hands and as they walk the Afgan says, "You know, I have just one question about what I have seen in America."

The American says "Well your Excellency, anything I can do to help you I will do."

The Afgan whispers "My son watches this show 'Star Trek' and in it there are Russians and Blacks and Asians, but never any Arabs. He is very upset. He doesn't understand why there are never any Arabs in Star Trek."

The American laughs and leans over. "That's because it takes place in the future."

Sorry, Dr. Bashir in Star Trek Ds9 is Arab, isn't he?

I don't know that Dr. Bashir is ever explicitly called an Arab or even a Muslim, but the name is certainly highly indicative. Wasn't Bashir originally a rank? Like Colonel or something? Guy in charge of hundreds?

Too bad Afghanis aren't arabs ...

Makes no difference to me. One scarfskull is the same as any raghead. Kill them all. Allah will know his own.
