I personally think British dry humor is great, but sometimes it feels like swallowing a mouthful of bandages. Middle Eastern humor on the other hand is twisted, sinister and extremely unpredictable.

For example think of that comedy they made about the execution of Eichmann. To many Westerners, it is bad taste but it is truly gold and self-emancipating.

I had no idea. But Arabs - do they also have that kind of humor like Jews, which frequently is self-deprecating ?

With Arab nations, it differs from country to country. Egyptians, Iraqies, Lebanese and Syrians (actually, the entire Levant) are the same. But you don't get this immediately in some gulf regions. I think this is because of ancient cultural transmissions which are entrenched.
