Big bald men. Yes! Why are they all bald? It’s the same guy every time, too: Tall (6’4-6’5), fat in that muscular way (275 pounds, gut, huge arms, small neck), and anything but jolly.

Oh, by the way, this story made it to NPR (not The Felafel’s story, but some newspaper’s). Here’s the link. Not sure how long it’ll last, but you have to listen to the audio to hear them talk about it…

No no no…”Shin Bet Behind the Scenes” kicking ass is way too predictable. I want to see things we would NEVER see: big, strong Shin Bet dudes knitting a sweater. Strong, bald Israeli men doing the can-can. Now THAT is exclusive access.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go kick some doors and write a blog about it.

Thanks, Big Felafel!

I was wondering who was going to pick this article up from Jpost.

No way this blog is going to be cool unless they put up some pictures of our agents drop kicking some doors or firebombing some lefties!

Do they hire people for that kind of thing?

Oh those pensioners.. I can't wait for them to write a juicy blog about which candidate wore the biggest glasses... Who made that word up anyway? Pensioners... what happened to retirees? It seems a teeny drop suspicious that the government is starting to censor blogs left and right only to start "writing" their own "blogs".... P.S. it kinda feels funny to comment on my own blog...
