A Jewish visitor to Paris was on his way to the Louvre when he saw a vicious dog attack a boy. Without hesitation, the Jew pounced on the dog, choked it to death, and saved the little boy. Police quickly appeared on the scene, followed by journalists eager to interview the hero. One of them said: “Tomorrow’s headline will be ‘A Parisian hero saves a child from the teeth of a vicious dog.’” “That sounds nice,” said the hero, “but I’m not Parisian.” The journalist replied: “OK, so the headline will read “French hero saves a child from the teeth of a vicious dog.’” The Jewish visitor corrected him again. “I’m not French.” Undeterred, the reporter said: “So the headline will read “European hero saves a child from the teeth of a vicious dog.’” Once again, the hero corrected him: “I’m not European. I’m Israeli.” “Well in that case,” the journalist said, “the headline will read “Israeli kills a boy’s dog in Paris street.”
