A Mideast GAMBLE ?

In the anti-war movie " The Deer Hunter " one of the

    main characters - just an ordinary all-American kid in the beginning -

    in the end, crazed by a senseless war, ends up playing Russian Roulette

    with the enemy - just to pass time and make a few bucks on the side.

          After reading about seven kids killed at an Israel university -

    and beginning to feel the " Ground-hog Day "  affect with the LATEST

    NEWS , I have conceived a new form of the state lottery :

               Call it JEW_-PAL . Millions can play this game daily for

    years to come. The daily winners are all those who correctly guess

    the exact number of Jews and Palestinians killed on a given day of

    the week. Only holy days - either Jew or Palestinian - there will

    be a mega lottery. You can win millions then !

              You can also win ten dollars just by correctly guessing the

    age in months or years of the youngest Jew or Palestinian killed on

    the day of the ticket.

               Like the macabre  song " The Monster Mash "  my  " JEW-PAL "

    could be the hit of the land .

                  I myself don't gamble. And would oppose an Indian casino

    here in Rhode Island. The Indians are just not responsible enough yet.

    And all that cash would go to their heads - as fast as that booze they

    like so much !
