The Israeli Judoka Ori Sasson wins a bronze medal and Ynet's lead story is about a the lack of a handshake!

you know as in 2014 during the war, Netanyahu sent negotiating teams to Cairo...you remember they negotiated with Hamas. So do me a favor...leave Peres the old foddy-doddy out of the formula!

Don't be surprised if his coach told him not to shake hands with an Israeli. In this case, I don't think the scenario would be different if the Egyptian Judoka won. Congrats to Sason, he did a great job!!!!
