Mahmoud: My arsenal big enough to wipe you out? Mahmoud: The King David, Tel Aviv. The Ahmadinejad Family wants to wipe you out.
Bebe:The Ahmadinejad Family wants to wipe me out? No, I wipe you out, you don't wipe me out.
Mahmoud: Your country loses friends, maybe we can do better.
Bebe:You think I'm just schlepping around, Moody?
Mahmoud: You're unlucky.
Bebe: I'm a Jew, of course I'm unlucky. You goddamn Persians really make me laugh. I do you a favor and take in this pile of rocks when you're having a bad time, and now you're gonna try and push me out!
Mahmoud: You took in this pile of rocks because our Nazi friends drove you out of Europe, the International Zionist Conspiracy bankrolled your country, and your British and American Friends off the coast guaranteed your safety. Now we're talking business, let's talk business.
Bebe: Yeah, let's talk business, Moody. First of all, you're all done. The Persians don't even have that kind of muscle anymore. No one reads your poetry and only your restaurants keep ya in the game. The Imam's sick, right? You're getting chased out of history by the Arabs and the other Oily Greaseballs. What do you think is going on here? You think you can come to my desert and take over? I talked to the other families - I can make a deal with them, and still keep my sand dunes!
Mahmoud: Is that why you slapped my brother Baghdad around in public?
Baghdad Fredo: Aw, now that, that was nothin', Moody. Bebe didn't mean nothin' by that. Yeah, sure he flies off the handle and bombs a nuclear reactor every once in a while, but me and him, we're good friends, right Bebe?
Bebe: I got a country to run. I gotta kick asses sometimes to make it run right. We had a little argument, Bags and me, so I had to straighten him out.
Mahmoud: You straightened my brother out?
Bebe:He was banging bombs together two at a time! People couldn't get to sleep for the worry! What's the matter with you?
Mahmoud: I leave for Tehran tomorrow, think about a price.
Bebe:Sonofabitch! Do you know who I am? I'm Bebe Netanyahu! I made my bones when you were taking over lousy embassies!
Baghdad Fredo: Wait a minute, Bebe, Bebe, I got an idea. Barry, Barry, you're the Consiglieri and you can talk to the Democrats, you can explain...
Barry O.: Now hold it right there. The Democrats are semi-retired when it comes to your country. Moody is in charge of the Middle East business now. If you have anything to say, say it to Moody.
Baghdad Fredo: [Netanyahu leaves] Moody! You do not come to the U.N. and talk to a man like Bebe Netanyahu like that!
Mahmoud: Bags, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Left again. Ever.
Bebe:The Ahmadinejad Family wants to wipe me out? No, I wipe you out, you don't wipe me out.
Mahmoud: Your country loses friends, maybe we can do better.
Bebe:You think I'm just schlepping around, Moody?

It is (HELLO ?) a parody. It is not meant - as you must know -as a full-on discourse on the Israeli-Palestinian situation.
You people on the Left must be so depressed walking around so ticked off and serious all the time. More fun at a Baptist Revival meeting. (Better singing too.)
In my latest I have Barry in a bubble ala John Revolta. I think you'll like it.
Be well.
Of course it's a parody, Barbara, just not a very good one. The problem is that a parody, even one as unfunny as this, should have a point. Unfortunately, even after several readings (and making allowances for your native obtuseness), I can't see a point here, aside from a chance for some strained, heavily contrived dialogue to lead into an ideologicless allusion to Obama allegedly surrendering the Mideast to Iran.
I confess to just having fun. I wasn't trying to make a knock-em-dead political point. If that means that, in your view, this fails to humour, delight, fit the bill, etc., then I'm prepared to live with it.
But thanks for not calling me names, although calling me obtuse is rather close and pretty silly. Nasty too. It is possible to be intelligent and disagree on issues. It happens all the time.
Thanks again for coming by and all.
