Journey – Page 12

 

YEHOSHUA

But then, you will have a problem. We leave you our uniforms, uniforms of Israeli soldiers. If you want to run towards whoever you meet, you will have to take the risk that they will shoot you like dogs. None of your Arab brothers bothers to take Israeli prisoners today.

 

Muffled cries of frustration rise from the throats of the Qatari officers. Eli pushes them into the large thicket and hears the muffled screams of pain that emanate from their throats as they roll into the depths of the thorny thicket. He goes over and collects the bushes that were uprooted from yesterday, which were used to camouflage the vehicle at night and cover the opening of the thicket, raising them completely. Yehoshua and Eli quickly take off their uniforms, leaving them on the side of the thicket, next to the Qatari captives. They wear the Qatari uniform. An acute sense of disgust overcomes them when they wear the sweaty clothes of the Qataris, especially Eli who has to squeeze into a shirt too narrow for him.

 

ELI

How do we solve the fact that I don't speak Arabic?

 

YEHOSHUA

You know Spanish, don't you?

 

ELI

Yes, fluently.

 

YEHOSHUA

So you are appointed at this moment to be the Cuban military attache who joined me, to the Qatari attache. Do stupid things in Spanish and use the words 'Castro' and 'Cuba' a lot.
