(or Why Only A Chop Takes A Chopper To His Chopper)
Did You Know?
During one of the many clashes between the peoples of Israel and Canaan, one of Jacob's daughters was raped. The Israelites told the Canaanites that they'd overlook the whole business (after all, the offending party was keen to marry the girl, and his tribe were offering good trade incentives) so long as the Canaanites circumcised themselves, in the Hebrew manner.
The Canaanites, recognising a good dea when they saw one, did as they were told. Whereupon, "on the third day, when they were sore", the Israelites promptly ambushed the Canaanite town and killed the lot of 'em.
