Here’s a minister with vision

Have a real horrorshow smeck, O my dear brothers.

Israeli newspapers have printed photos of Defence Minister Amir Peretz trying to watch military manoeuvres through binoculars with the lens caps still on.

Mr Peretz was inspecting troops in the Golan Heights with the Israeli army’s new chief of staff, Gen Gabi Ashkenazi.

According to the photographer, Mr Peretz looked through the capped binoculars three times, nodding as Gen Ashkenazi explained what was in view.

    An excellent photo. Did he just not want to admit he couldn’t see anything?

    Ah, God knows :) I find it hilarious that he nodded in pretense! (That is, if the photographer is to be believed.)
