An Israeli is on vacation and is visiting a zoo in the States when he
sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage.
Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to
pull her inside to devour her - under the eyes of her screaming
parents.
The Israeli runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with
a powerful punch.
Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl,
and the Israeli brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him
endlessly.
A reporter had watched the whole event. The reporter says to the
Israeli: 'Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I've seen a
man do in my entire life.'
The Israeli replies, 'Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind
bars. I just saw this little kid in danger and did what I thought was
right.'
The reporter says, 'Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a
journalist, and tomorrow's paper will have this story on the front
page! So, what do you do for a living and what political affiliation
do you have?'
The Israeli replies, "I serve in the Israeli army and I vote for the Likud.'
The journalist leaves.
The following morning the Israeli buys the paper to see news of his
actions, and reads, on the front page:
ISRAELI ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH
And this pretty much sums up the media's approach to Israel !
