The football code

There's an email doing the rounds in Lebanon at the moment, pointing out a spooky coincidence.

  • In 1982, Italy won the world cup and Israel invaded Lebanon.
  • In 2006, Italy won the world cup and Israel invaded Lebanon.

So the message to the Lebanese is: if Italy win the World Cup again, get the fuck out of there!

Nice to see they can still laugh about something.
