The land speaks Arabic

The land speaks Arabic

Sattouf and Taltouf sat in the “The Land Speaks Arabic” café, sipping tea. Sattuf nodded and said to his neighbor in a low voice:
- Today I went to the downtown market to buy onions, and found out the price had doubled
Lattouf replied:
- Prices jumped like a ball today
- By God, my entire income is not enough for three days, and, of course, I have not eaten any kind of meat for three years.
The lira is no longer valuable, just a piece of paper, it has lost its value. Sattouf replied:
- The higher the dollar, the lower the lira is....
When Lattouf heard the word “dollar,” he turned around, and said to his neighbor:
- please do not say the name of this cursed money, but say the green thing. By God, they will put you in underground prison and no one knows your fate.
Sattouf said:
- You are just chicken. Is the dollar has become taboo also.
- Yes, I am a chicken. Don’t you remember how they put Abu Sahban in prison and disappeared thereafter because they caught him with a hundred dollars?
Sattouf said, this time in a whisper:
- Listen brother, everything in the world is linked to the dollar... meat... chicken...
Lattouf responded sarcastically:
- By God, it is clear that you have begun to understand economics and are competing with your uncle Adam Smith in this field. They should appoint you as Minister of Economy.
Sattouf said, supporting his neighbor’s words:
- You are right.. I swear to God, a little school student understands economics better than this minister... He is just a jackass packed in clothes.
Lattouf was upset and waved a goodbye and said:
- brother, there is no use in talking to you... I told you to quit these risky talks... By God, our body cannot bear any beatings and insults.
Sattouf grabbed his neighbor’s hand and said to him jokingly:
Come on sit down. Don t be afraid.
- These stupid talks will make you disappear forever.
As soon as Latuf finished speaking, a man behind him grabbed the hem of his shirt, the second man grabbed Sattouf’s hair, and the third said:
- you are talking about prices and dollars, you sons of bitch? By God, I am going to skin you like chicken.
Another man said:
- You are conspiring against the state, receiving dollars from a foreign country, and intending to overthrow the regime by force.... I swear to God, I will make you crave death and not see it.
As for Sattuf and Tattuf, they turned into lifeless corpses from extreme fear...which made the men drag them like big bags of wheat
