For anyone who believes that the average Brit has even the faintest idea of what is going on in the Middle East they might like to know that the winner of today’s general knowledge quiz show “The Weakest Link”, which runs weekdays on the BBC, had an interesting take on Israeli intelligence matters.
I just happened to be watching the last few minutes of the show which precedes the 6 o clock news when the final two contestants were fighting it out in a head to head. The contestant, Rob, was asked to name Israel’s most prominent secret intelligence service. With a shrug of his shoulders, he ventured his answer: “Al Qaeda”?
Even the notoriously severe Anne Robinson, who hosts the show, could not repress a despairing smile. The hapless Rob went on to win the show. God bless Britain’s finest…
