The book that didn't exist shows up |

Channel 10 reporter Ofer Shelah, said he wanted to tell a little story. He then went on to say that in a Channel 2/YouTube interview last week, the prime minister, when asked by someone named Noa what book he was reading, answered that he was reading one called Security of the State by a British agent. Shelah said that he went to the Internet to search for a book by that name. “There is no book with that name, or a similar name,” he said. “I didn’t find a book by a British agent.”had implied book by British intelligence agent that Netanyahu said he was reading didn't exist. ...It just so happens, however, that about a week before that interview, Netanyahu flew down to see work on the new security barrier on the Egyptian border, and took some journalists – including this reporter – with him on the helicopter. On that helicopter ride he was reading a book called Securing the State, by David Omand, formerly the UK’s security and intelligence co-coordinator responsible for controlling the overall direction for the British prime minister of the country’s counter-terrorism strategy.

#1 Right. There's no way a reporter could make a mistake, so the prime minister must be lying! A sinister plot, for sure! Why, it's so sinister, even I - {soon-to-be Pulitzer Prize winner} - can't figure it out! |
