With A Cherry On The Top

As political finance scandals go, it’s pretty low level. But it does seem to have captured everyone’s imagination. Bibi likes his ice cream. So of course we have this (unattributable just floating around the interwebs):

Bibi Ice Cream UN

The Hebrew just says “Cherry, Pistachio, Vanilla and Chocolate”.

And from our friend at Real Jerusalem Streets come these pictures of the Ice Cream parlour in question:

  1. Usually I scream for ice cream just like Bibi, but this time I scream for Brian’s post to have more context. If Dave hasn’t covered it elsewhere, or if it’s not in “The Daily Worker” I haven’t heard about it.

      1. Thanks, Dave. Sounds like a fun story to cover in Israel for a change. When the article reported that Mrs. Netanyahu prefers French Vanilla ice cream, the thought bubble inside my head was screaming: “and by the looks of her, lots of it.”

  2. OK, I’m not a big fan of Netanyahu, he’s way too left for me, but the media in Israel would really dig up everything just to make him look bad.
    One example: Olmert is the media’s favorite boy and even though he has been convicted “for breach of trust” as a prime minister and still highly praised everywhere…
    Man, he his the Prime Minister and has more rights than a normal citizen. And yes he gets a driver and a nice comfortable car, bulletproof, he will fly first-class, etc.
    This is the way it works.

  3. $2700 per year hardly blows the budget. It’s probably necessary to spend more than that per day on his security. Must have been a slow news week.
