Palestinians Mount Violent Protest Over Lack of Paychecks - New York Times

This is not a funny story per se for the simple fact that regular folks are hungry, and that is never a laughing matter.

However, it is ironic that Hamas, the organization who has been killing Israelis and others for quite some time - a recognized terrorist organization - not finds itself chased from assemblies by crows of people pelting them with empty water bottles.

While it is not funny either, it does show how hard it is to run things well - than to, well, ruin things.
