A camel broke free from its farm in Saudi Arabia and ran amok through the streets, damaging cars and sending frightened people into their homes.

The camel chased passers by and smashed car windows as it kept running astray through the streets of the western town of Taif.

Its owner chased and tried to stop the animal but could not and the situation was quickly reversed when the owner was himself chased by the camel.

“Car started to honk and this made the camel more mad…after wreaking havoc, the camel ran out of the streets and disappeared,” the Arabic language Al-Taif newspaper said, without mentioning if the camel was captured later.

the owner was himself chased by the camel.

“I’d run a mile from a Camel.”

What set her off was his inspecting her camel toe.

This would make a great classic cartoon.

It would!

“It would!”

It did!

Thank you so much for the link! Who knew that 70 years ago those cretins were of the same mindset that they are now.

I loved, and still love, those old cartoons. They weren’t PC one bit.

If someone were to nuke the Arabs back to the Stone Age, it would actually be cultural advancement.

“If someone were to nuke the Arabs back to the Stone Age, it would actually be cultural advancement.”

There’s no doubt about that!

An advancement, and an enhancement.

Hey, Achmed - when the camel says NO - that means NO.

Welcome to the culb.....er club.

HEY! I RESEMBLE THAT!

They should communicate with the camel and find out why it is so mad.
Maybe if they appease it with territory it will be happy.

[Slings and Arrows]

Thankfully, Arabs don’t read science fiction.

(Take a look at Larry Niven’s novel The Gift From Earth, and you’ll know why I say that.)

[Darksheare]

Uh oh.

[Slings and Arrows]

It might not be that bad. I’m sure that Israel will be willing to give them humanitarian aid.

[Darksheare]

I don’t remember who the author was, but there was a short sci-fi story where the bioengineered lawn ate the company dog.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

“Where is your RPG when you really need it?”

Indeed. I would walk a mile to smoke a camel.
