Psycho-bibi or Bibi-sitter?


Beyond Bottle-gate: The top 11 scandals that have touched Benjamin and Sara Netanyahu

By Haaretz | Feb. 2, 2015
11) Bibi-gate: Netanyahu's first major scandal of his political career emerged in 1993, when he admitted on television to having an extramarital affair with Ruth Bar, a media adviser he had hired to help him in 1992's Likud party primary. Netanyahu asserted that an anonymous person had called Sara and threatened that a secret videotape portraying Netanyahu in compromising sexual positions with another woman would be released if he did not withdraw his candidacy for the Likud leadership. The affair blew over, and Netanyahu won the election. It was not Netanyahu's first extramarital affair. He had started an affair during his first marriage to Miriam Weizman with Fleur Cates, a British woman he met while in the United States, who became his second wife.

Wow, I had no idea Netanyahu was onto marriage No. 3, so I thought I'd check it out.

And then I found this:

Psycho-bibi, LOL.  That's quite a contrast with the trusted babysitter advert running in Israel:





I'm a sucker, cos he does sound rather vulnerable in the 'Psyco-bibi' article.
Anyway, that was a bit of fun.
