Do you not understand that it's a joke?

Obviously we all know the paper is talking about the microorganism, but since the real cause of the famine wasn't the microorganism but the British, it's funny to act like the paper is insulting the British rather than talking about the microorganism.

That's the only way I can interpret your comment in any coherent way, that the joke just went completely over your head.

I do understand it.

It's just bad. But you guys eat up any bad joke if the purpose is to blame the US, GB or Israel for anything. It's predictable and lame.

So lame.

The wordplay is clever. Somebody's big mad that people are blaming the British for something they did

Might want to examine why people making fun of one of the most blatantly evil empires of all time offends you.
