A God political joke

Because Forsoothsayer didn't think my opening joke in last week's post was good enough, here's another one. And this one's got God in the cast (but it's fictional, unfortunately...)
It was a classic in Cairo when Fahd and Assad were still alive...

For non-arabic speakers, know that 'Fahd' means 'panther' and 'Assad' means 'lion' in arabic, hence the wordplay.
Here it goes.

King Fahd of Saudi Arabia, Hafez Al Assad of Syria and Mubarak of Egypt died and are standing by God.
God: You three have screwed up big time on earth, but I'll give you another chance - you'll be reincarnated. Only this time, as animals. What animals do you want to be?
King Fahd: A panther!
Al-Assad: A lion!
Mubarak: Hmm... I don't know what to choose..
God: Well, I'll choose for you then -- you'll be reincarnated as a donkey.
Mubarak: oh shit! Not again???

I think the "La vache qui rit" thing was kept in store for other jokes..
