A fleeing Taliban, desperate for water, was plodding through the Afghan desert when he saw something far off in the distance.
Hoping to find water, he hurried toward the oasis, only to find a little old Jewish man at a small stand, selling ties.

The Taliban asked, "Do you have water?"
The Jewish man replied, "I have no water. Would you like to buy a tie? They are only $5."

The Taliban shouted, "Idiot! I do not need an over-priced tie. I need water! I should kill you, but I must find water first!"
"OK," said the old Jewish man, "It does not matter that you do not want to buy a tie and that you hate me. I will show you that I am bigger than that.
If you continue over that hill to the east for about two miles, you will find a lovely restaurant. It has all the ice cold water you need. Shalom."

Cursing, the Taliban staggered away over the hill.
Several hours later he staggered back, almost dead & said, "Your f*#king brother won't let me in without a tie!"

I see why it's funny, I don't see why religion is necessary...unless you want to drill in the antisemitic stereotype that Jews are sneaky.

Saw Lampinelli in concert and her's was IMO far worse.

Working together is sneaky? I can't see your point.
