[evlbstrd]

I believe that was Groucho. Or did he write "Das Kapital?"

[OldLeftieLawyer]

3. Let me axe you this:

Did you leave your sense of humor in a drawer?

Go get it.

Then you can relax.

Oy.

[Catherine Vincent]

6. LOL! You lawyers are all alike.

[BrklynLiberal]

14. Is it still funny to play on Karl Marx and the Marx Brothers?

And here I thought it was a tiresome old cliche. I better check my drawer too!

[OldLeftieLawyer]

18. Yeah, it is,

and you were wrong.

Check the drawer.

[alcibiades_mystery]

26. I checked the drawer

And it says right there on p. 35 (paragraph 3) of the humor manual that folks that "still answer 'Groucho?' when someone says 'Marx' are not funny" because "that ole shit been played out back in nineteen sitty-seben" (emphasis in original). Please refer to the manual.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

27. Wrong drawer

Go to the one where you keep the broken Slinkys and the batteries that might have some life still left in them. The one with all those single socks, single sex, single sects, and your good mood.

Take out the last one.

It'll make you feel better.

Now, go spread joy.

[alcibiades_mystery]

28. Gotcha...checked it

The only thing in there was an old grocery receipt, on the back of which was printed the following url: http://www.badpuns.com/

Oh well!

Cheers.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

2. Short bio:

Efraim Halevy was head of Mossad, Israel's intelligence service, from 1998 to 2002. Since 2003 he has been head of the Centre for Strategic and Policy Studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem

[OldLeftieLawyer]

4. Yep, and all my spook friends

have always told me that there is no organization - none, nowhere, none - as deadly as Mossad.

Interesting choice of guest.

[babylonsister]

12. I've read many a book where the Mossad figured

prominently; I have no doubt your friends are right. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say about our current sad state of affairs.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

20. The stories I've heard

I thought - a long time ago - the KGB was bad. Then my foreign correspondent pal (he was head of the Chicago Tribune's Moscow bureau) told me that they were nothing compared to Stasi.

And the Stasi guys were monsters. Hideous, horrible monsters.

Then I met some Stasi guys via my spook friends, and they talked about Mossad.

I am still speechless. There are no words for what these guys do.

[BrklynLiberal]

5. hmmm That should be interesting.

Efraim Halevy was head of Mossad, Israel's intelligence service, from 1998 to 2002. Since 2003 he has been head of the Centre for Strategic and Policy Studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem

[Stinky The Clown]

7. Great that he's on the Daily. Sad that he's on the Daily Show

Too bad our media is dead.

Mossad .... the Pentagon ..... The CIA ..... the Diplomatic Corps

Hey Georgie ... better check the creds of the palace guard there, buddy. Yanno?

I'm just sayin' .......

[BrklynLiberal]

10. So, did he write a book or something?

[TomInTib]

11. I saw him on another show earlier today.

Wonder what's cooking.

Maybe the US is going to farm out intel to Mossad.

If that happens those domestic detention camps KBR is building will fill up real quick.

[DoYouEverWonder]

13. Condi just got linked to the AIPAC spy scandal

Maybe they need to put a friendly face on this double agent stuff.

[TomInTib]

16. Good point. There has to be something behind it.

They are not into altruism.

[NJ Democrats]

15. Former head of Mossad, So?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

19. Go learn about Mossad

Then you won't be confused.

[NJ Democrats]

21. I know what Mossad is

[DoYouEverWonder]

23. Head of Mossad on 9-11

and wasn't Mossad one of the groups that warned BushCo about 9-11?

[Catchawave]

24. From Rense ?

[DoYouEverWonder]

25. No, from assorted articles in the M$M

This one from the Telegraph is probably the original source.


Israeli security issued urgent warning to CIA of large-scale terror attacks

By David Wastell in Washington and Philip Jacobson in Jerusalem
(Filed: 16/09/2001)

ISRAELI intelligence officials say that they warned their counterparts in the United States last month that large-scale terrorist attacks on highly visible targets on the American mainland were imminent.

The attacks on the World Trade Centre's twin towers and the Pentagon were humiliating blows to the intelligence services, which failed to foresee them, and to the defence forces of the most powerful nation in the world, which failed to deflect them.

The Telegraph has learnt that two senior experts with Mossad, the Israeli military intelligence service, were sent to Washington in August to alert the CIA and FBI to the existence of a cell of as many of 200 terrorists said to be preparing a big operation.
