Netanyahu walks out of cabinet meeting

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu decided to take a stand against disruptive cabinet members today at the weekly meeting, storming out of the session in protest.

Netanyahu is said to be furious with ministers who were ducking out to make and receive phone calls and to eat in the canteen during the meeting.

He left and only came back when everyone was seated and ready to work.
