Yasser Arafat calls up George W. Bush, and Arafat immediately says, "Oh
President Bush, I send my condolences. The whole Palestinian people
share your pain. This is a terrible terrible tragedy that happened and 
we sympathize with your grief. Words cannot begin to describe the horror 
of this act..."

Bush abruptly cuts him off and says, "Excuse me Yasser, but what are you
talking about?"

To which Arafat replies, "Oh sh*t! I forgot about the 7 hour time 
zone difference!"
