An American, a Dutchman and a Frenchman are in Saudi Arabia, sharing
a smuggled crate of booze when Saudi police rush in and arrest them.
The
mere
possession of alcohol is a severe offense in Saudi Arabia, so for the
terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the booze,they are all sentenced to death!
However, after many months and with the help of very good lawyers,
they
are
able to successfully appeal their sentences down to life mprisonment. By
a
stroke of luck, it was a Saudi national holiday the day their trial
finished, and the extremely benevolent Sheik decided they could be
released
after receiving just 20 lashes each of the whip. As they were
preparing
for
their punishment, the Sheik announced: "It's my first wife's birthday
today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your
whipping."
The Dutchman was first in line, he thought for a while and then said:
"Please tie a pillow to my back." This was done, but the pillow only
lasted
10 lashes before the whip went through. When the punishment was done
he
had
to be carried away bleeding and crying with pain. The Frenchman was
next up. After watching the Dutchman in horror he said smugly:
"Please fix two pillows to my back." But even two pillows could only
take 15 lashes
before
the whip went through again and the Frenchman was soon led away
whimpering
loudly (as they do, being the rancid wimps they are). The American
was
the
last one up, but before he could say anything, the Sheik turned to
him
and
said: "You are from a most beautiful part of the world and your
culture
is
one of the finest in the world. For this, you may have two wishes!"
"Thank you, your Most Royal and Merciful highness," the American
replied. "In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you
give me not
20,
but 100 lashes." "Not only are you an honorable, handsome and
powerful
man,
you are also very brave." The Sheik said with an admiring look on his
face.
"If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. "And your second
wish, what is it to be?" the Sheik asked.
The American replied: "Tie the Frenchman to my back."
