Israeli on Vacation…
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.
ҬSuddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter 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.

ҬA reporter has watched the whole event.
The reporter says to the Israeli, ‘Sir, this was the most gallant and brave things I’ve seen a man do in my whole life.’ The Israeli replies, ‘Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger and acted as I felt 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:

That pretty much sums up the media’s approach to Israel these days.
