The magic goldfish

Back in 1980 a Polish soldier finds a magic goldfish. The magic goldfish promises to grant him three wishes if he'll set him free in a nice lake. The soldier agrees. So the magic goldfish asks "What is your first wish?"
"I'd like the Chinese army to march all the way into Hungary and smash up everything and then march home!"
"Okay" says the goldfish "what is your second wish?"
"I'd like the Chinese army to march all the way back to Hungary and wreck anything they didn't on the first trip, and then march all the way home!"
"Fine" says the goldfish "what is your third and final wish?"
"I'd like the Chinese army to march all the way back to Hungary again and turn Budapest into rubble! And then march all the way home again!"
"Okay" says the magic goldfish "but I've got to ask you something, why do you hate Hungarians so much?"
"I don't" replies the soldier "but can you imagine the Soviet Union after the Chinese army has been through it six times"
