The Iranian Ambassador to the UN had just finished giving a speech, and walked out into the lobby where he met President Bush.

They shook hands, and as they walked the Iranian said, "You know, I have just one question about what I have seen in America."

President Bush said, "Well, anything I can do to help you, I will."

The Iranian whispered "My son watches this show 'Star Trek' and in it there is this Chekhov who is Russian, Scotty who is Scottish, and Sulu who is Chinese, but no Arabs.

My son is very upset and doesn't understand why there aren't any Iranians on Star Trek."

President Bush laughed, leaned toward the Iranian ambassador, and whispered back, "It's because it takes place in the future."

Yeah it reminds me of the Jetson's. There were no people of color at all. Come to think of it I think the Flinstones were the same way....

1.I suppose that it is just a joke( not something that really happened)?

2.

"It's because it takes place in the future."

Does that mean that Iranians will be extinguished by the american bombs? If yes then it's a rather bad joke. If it means that this is the way that Bush thinks then it is probably a wity one but still too sad to laugh with it.

Er, its just a joke and should just be taken lightly.

Or just think it the other way round:

In the future, there are so many types of transport in the space, spaceship is just one type, and frequently used by Russian, Scottish, and Chinese, while other nations use other favourite transport.

I believe it's a dig at bush and not to be taken seriously.

It's all how you take it....... It is just a joke. I am Italian and some of the best jokes are Italian joke! I don't let it offend me. If they are funny then laugh, if you don't care for the joke then read another joke.

A Joke is a short story or short series of words spoken or communicated with the intent of being laughed at or found humerous by the listener or reader.
