PM: I listen to Arik Einstein and The Beatles, not calls of IDF and Mossad heads
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GooglePrime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu again dismisses a TV report he asked the Shin Bet security agency in 2011 to tap the phones of the head of the Mossad and the IDF chief of staff.
“This is a complete lie,” Netanyahu says in a video posted to his social media accounts.
“Not only am I saying this, former Shin Bet head [Yoram Cohen] also says: this is nonsense, a lie,” he adds.
Netanyahu then reveals what he “really listens to.”
“The High Windows, The Yarkon Bridge Trio, Arik Einstein,” he says, listing off Israeli musicians.
“The Beatles — the first albums — Abba and also people from today,” Netanyahu says.
He adds that he doubts the media will apologize for the report, which was aired by the “Uvda” investigative program.
