DRAFT LETTER, FOR DFAT EYES ONLY
To: Mahmoud Abbas aka Abu Mazen, the Gilded Marble Palace with the Gold Taps, Number One Arafat Place, Hill of the Holy Martyrs, Ramallah, Palestine.
From: Julie B.
Subject: Our 43 million bucks.
My dear Mahmoud, he who is like a lion in the desert as the sands of history swirl all around (bit over the top, but best to play it safe – dfat),
You may also remember that I stood tall against the vile oppressors of the Palestinian people may peace be upon them (excellent – dfat) by the barbaric apartheid state of the perfidious Zionist Settler entity (best tone down for Senates Estimates – dfat) with my incredibly brave stance in the hallowed halls of the United Nations may peace be upon them where I showed my true warrior spirit by strongly agreeing to abstain.
You may also recall that it was at my instigation that the proud and beloved daughter of Somalia, she who is like a candle in the darkness among the infidels of Australia (this is good – dfat), and to whom it was revealed by the Prophet that Islam is the most feminist of religions may peace be upon it and her blessed sisters and daughters, was sent forth among the peoples of the Middle East may peace rain down forever upon them (unlikely, let’s be honest – dfat) to promote her book at taxpayer’s expense.
