The Saudi Ambassador to the UN has just finished
giving a speech, and walks out into the lobby where
he meets President Bush.
>
They shake hands and as they walk the Saudi says,
"You know, I have just one question about what
I have seen in America."
>
President Bush says "Well your Excellency, anything
I can do to help you, I will do.
>

The Saudi whispers "My son watches this show
'StarTrek' 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."
>
President Bush laughs and leans toward the
Saudi,and whispers back,"It's because it takes
place in the future...."
