So Akbar shows Abu a picture of his 1st born.
" This was Mahmoud, He is a martyr."
He shows another picture.
"And this is Mohammed. He too is a martyr."
And another.
"And this was our youngest Yassir. He also was a martyr."
Abu comments, " Ah children, they blow up so fast!"

So, Akbar lost three children and was paid $25,000 per child? His family would receive $75,000. Think I'm making it up? Read the link and learn that truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. Yes, I understand that this was a joke, but the truth is that many of these real martyrs do it to financially support their families as much as they do it "for the cause."
Again, read the link:
"The payments were $15,000 at the start of the intifada, and were later raised to $25,000."

Pretty much sick but sadly true when it comes to some situations... Just another one of those stupid jokes about the BS that goes on in our world.
I have a better one that I made up (and from experience but I am not old)
Why do so many retired people drive Cadillacs?
Going to the service dept once a week gives them something to do.

Accurate and pathetic at the same time. Humorless, but accurate.
