A SECRET UNITED Nations paper proposes that Palestinian civilians could be dressed in blue-striped pajamas to enable the Israeli Defence Forces to recognize them.

“The women, of course, could have a striped burqa version of the outfit for cultural sensitivity,” said a UN spokesperson. “But the pajamas would highlight in no uncertain terms the innocent civilians in danger of being blown to bits by Israeli bombs and the like. And we’ve had a huge stockpile of these garments left over in our warehouses in Europe since 1945, would you believe.”
