Yup. The one I like also is "Trust in God, but tie up your camel."

My joke guy sent me this one today ... It sounds too weird to be true ...

Since America is typically represented by an eagle, Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages...
The following verse is from the Quran, (the Islamic Bible)

Quran (9:11) -- For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle.
The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some
of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed
the lands of Allah; and there was peace.

( Note the verse number)

I did a search of the Quran with USC's search engine:

and the word "eagle" does not appear anywhere in the Quran.
You've been had.
Thanks to You and --exray--. I though so....
