This a smart one...worth forwarding endlessly... .
An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United
Nations Assembly that made the world community smile.
A representative from India began : 'Before beginning my speech I want to
tell you something about Rishi Kashyap of Kashmir, after whom Kashmir is
named. When he struck a rock and it brought forth water, he thought, 'What a
good opportunity to have a bath.'
He removed his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water.
When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished. A Pakistani
had stolen them.'
The Pakistani representative jumped up furiously and shouted, 'What are you
talking about? The Pakistanis weren't there then.'
The Indian representative smiled and said, 'And now that we have made that
clear, I will begin my speech.
'And they say Kashmir belongs to them"
