For your entertainment while I am trapped in O’Hare…
According to “the BBC,”:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/6441461.stm Israel has recalled its ambassador to El Salvador “after he was found drunk and naked apart from bondage gear.”
Here’s my favorite part:
bq. Apparently the man was “able to identify himself to police only after a rubber ball had been removed from his mouth.”
Foreign Mnistry spokeswoman Zehavit Ben-Hillel described his behavior as “unbecoming of a diplomat.” Haaretz “has more.”:http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/836258.html
Depends on what kind of diplomacy you’re engaged in…
*Update:*
I had to add this tidbit from an “AFP article, via Rawstory.”:http://rawstory.com/news/afp/Israel_envoy_recalled_over_bondage__03122007.html
Acccording to a FM source, the ambassador’s public appearance marked “the first time” that he “had ever distingished himself in any way.”
