"I see" said the blind man
Israeli newspapers on Thursday ran front-page pictures of Defense Minister Amir Peretz on a hill in the Golan Heights, inspecting his troops through binoculars with the lens caps on.
Peretz joined the new army chief of staff, Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, watching Wednesday's large-scale maneuvers. The pictures show the two side by side with military binoculars held up to their eyes — but Peretz's still have the lens caps in place. The photographer said Peretz raised the capped binoculars three times, nodding as Ashkenazi explained what he was "seeing."
In other news, yesterday Peretz said that 'he plans to go all the way' in the the evacuation of what he calls"illegal" outposts. Because that's the single most important issue for Israel right now.
There are none so blind as those who will not see.

Has a similar picture been done with just about every political person?

That's hilarious. I saw that on TV and while ago and thought it was a joke at first. Then again - I guess it really is a joke :(

"There are none so blind as those who will not see." That speaks volumes Linda.
