IQ test
Bibi Netanyahu goes to Washington for a meeting with Bill Clinton. After dinner, Bill says to Bibi ” Well Bibi, I don’t know what you think of the members of your Cabinet, but mine are all quite bright.”
“How do you know?” asks Bibi.
“Oh well, it’s simple”, says Bill. “They all have to take special tests before they can join the cabinet. Wait a second”. He calls Madeleine Albright over and says to her “Tell me Madeleine, who is the child of your father and of your mother who is not your brother and is not your sister?”
“Ah, that’s simple Mr. President,” says Madeleine, “it is me!”
“Well done, Madeleine,” says Clinton and Bibi is very impressed.
Bibi returns to Israel and wonders about the intelligence of the members of his Cabinet. He calls in Rafael Eitan and says: “Rafael, tell me, who is the child of your father and of your mother who is not your brother and is not your sister?”
Rafael thinks and thinks and doesn’t know the answer. “Can I think about it a bit further, Bibi? May I let you know tomorrow?”
“Of course,” says Bibi, “you’ve got 24 hours.”
Rafael goes away, thinks as hard as he can, calls in his team, but no-one knows the answer. 20 hours later, Rafael is very worried, still no answer and only 4 hours to go.
Eventually Rafael says “I’ll ask Yossie Sarid, he’s clever, he’ll know the answer.”
He calls Sarid. “Yossie,” he says, “tell me who is the child of your father and of your mother who is not your brother and is not your sister?”
“Very simple,” says Yossie Sarid, “it’s me!”
“Of course,” says Rafael and calls Bibi.
“Bibi,” says Rafael, “I’ve got the answer: it’s Yossie Sarid.”
“No, you idiot,” says Bibi, “it’s Madeleine Albright”.
