Clinton visits Saddam Hussein to talk about the weapon-
inspections in Iraq. As he sits down he sees three
buttons in the arm-rest of the chair of Saddam. When
Saddam sits down, Clinton immediately asks: ‘why are
there three buttons in your arm-rest?’ ‘You’ll see'
replies Saddam.

They start the talks, but after 10 minutes Saddam
presses the 1st button, and ‘WHACK’ a boxing glove
hits Clinton in the face, Clinton grabs his nose,
while Saddam is laughing himself silly. Clinton
remains calm because he doesn't want this to affect
the talks.

After another 10 minutes, Saddam presses the 2nd
button and another boxing glove hits Clinton in the
stomach. While Clinton is gasping for air, Saddam
falls out of his chair from laughing. Clinton gets
annoyed by now, but still remains outwardly calm.

They resume the talk, but after 5 minutes Saddam
presses the final button, and from under the table
another boxing glove hits Clinton, right in the
groin. Clinton is really fed up by it now and stands
up to leave. ‘We’ll continue this talk next week in
the White House' says the President. Saddam, choking
from laughing, is too proud to say no, so the
appointment stands.

A week later Clinton receives Saddam in the Oval
Office, and as Saddam sits down, he sees three
buttons in the arm-rest of Clinton's chair. As the
meeting goes on, Saddam sees that Clinton presses
the first button, and ducks really fast, but nothing
seems to happen. This doesn't stop Clinton from
laughing…really loud.

After this, Clinton continues where he left off,
until he presses another button. Saddam reacts really
quick, and jumps up. Absolutely nothing happens, and
this time Clinton falls out of his chair laughing.
Saddam doesn't get it - what the hell is happening
here?

But he hasn't been harmed yet, so he sits down again
to talk further. After a few minutes Clinton presses
the final button. This time, Saddam stays sitting, but
Clinton isn't, he's is rolling on the floor, doubled up
from laughing.

Saddam is really annoyed by now, so he stands up from
his chair and shouts: “I've had enough of this,
I'm going back to Baghdad”

(Through tears of laughter from the floor) -
“Baghdad?…..what Baghdad?”
