Robert Mugabe goes on a state visit to Israel. While he is on a tour of Jerusalem he suffers a heart attack and passes away.
The undertaker tells his minders, “You can have him shipped home for US$500,000, or you can bury him here, in the Holy Land, for just US$100.”
The Zimbabweans go into a corner and discuss for a minute. They come back to the undertaker and tell him they want Mugabe shipped home.
The undertaker is puzzled and asks, “Why would you spend $500,000 to ship him home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only $100? With the money you save you could buy enough diesel for a year, buy enough medicines to wipe out cholera, buy enough generators so you will never have blackouts again.”
The Zimbabweans replied, “Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. We just can’t take that chance.” – Author unknown
