News Story of the Day

I hope somebody caught this on their cell phone. YouTube awaits!

"Israel is replacing its ambassador in El Salvador after the envoy was found outside the embassy, drunk, wearing only bondage gear, officials said.

San Salvador was Tzuriel Refael's first post as ambassador, after promotion in 2006 from a foreign ministry position. The official said that, although diplomats may have caused embarrassment in the past, this was "the last straw".

"During the 60 years of the State of Israel, some of our diplomats have caused us embarrassment, as happens in every country," the official said. "But an ambassador behaving indecently on a public thoroughfare, that has never happened before."

Haaretz website reports that police found Mr Refael in the Israeli embassy compound two weeks ago. He was inebriated, his hands were tied and he was gagged with a rubber ball in his mouth. (BBC News)

I want to see them blame this on Hamas.

I kinda wish this would happen to a Canadian Ambassador somewhere. It would spice up our boring image.

Now that would be embarassing! And of course it was Hamas- who else do you think tied him up?
