    Efraim Halevy On Comedy Central

    This is almost too good to be true. But it is, and its funny too. Ex-Mossad (Israeli Foreign Intelligence Service) Chief, Efraim Halevy appeared on the Daily Show interviewed by the always funny Jon Steward. Halevy talked about his book: "Man In the Shadows - from the director who led the Mossad" . Mr. Halevy definately scored when asked about whether there were still WMD's in Iraq. I am not sure if Halevy really know what the daily show was before going on stage - but he handled it great.

    I read his book a couple of months ago, and can really recommend it for anybody interested in some behind the scences stories of several important Middle East events, he challenges of leading an Intelligence service and maintaining the "right" balance to the person he reports to (the Priminister) and his political agenda.

    I especially like the last chapters title:

    Diplomacy - the art of the possible. Intelligence - the art of the impossible
