Picture of the Day

in light of the recent news of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's spending of $127,000 to add a bed to his flight to Europe recently, so that he could rest and be fresh for his events and meetings upon landing, and that became known right after it became known the lavish conditions he stayed in during his visit to China, all while budget cuts are threatening to decimate the middle class in Israel, David Rubinger released a photo from the days of Menachem Begin that shows how he rested on flights while he was Prime Minister. And this was on a flight to the US, not Europe.

(Rubinger is a famous Israeli photographer. Probably his most famous picture is that if the three paratroopers by the Kotel after recapturing the Old City of Jerusalem in the Six Day War)
