As experts around the world were analyzing the significance of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech last night, Twitter pundits were doing what they do best: poking fun. It wasn't hard to make jokes at Netanyahu's expense last night, particularly when he whipped a black cloth off a bookcase full of binders and a wall of CD-ROMs. Quite a few people joked that the prime minister looked like he was hawking those goods on a TV shopping network. “SHOPPING CHANNEL,” wrote Kan's Amichai Stein, posting a photoshopped image of Netanyahu made up to look like Israel's shopping network. The “Amad” bookshelf, it turns out, can be yours for just NIS 1,665.

Others lamented the poor IDF soldiers who had to paste the CDs to the wall and lug around the binders for the display. Haredi journalist Moshe Weissberg joked that the room looked like “every charity in every Haredi city.” כמו קופת צדקה בכל עיר חרדית pic.twitter.com/KZr7OUJiks — משה ויסברג (@moshe_nayes) April 30, 2018 'The Iranian regime has all of the old free AOL download disks and they are using them to build a nuke,' joked former Jerusalem Post reporter Ben Hartman.

Billinson added in a recent, much talked about tweet from US President Donald Trump: 'Thank you Kanye, very cool.' pic.twitter.com/IcS5csNZHN — Josh Billinson (@jbillinson) April 30, 2018 Jewish Insider reporter Jacob Kornbluh called this 'The most dramatic part of Bibi's speech?' superimposing onto the screen the message 'There was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.'

I'm surprised no one is talking about the most shocking revelation in Bibi's presentation today. It explains so much. pic.twitter.com/kvxmlOPdEt — (((Yair Rosenberg))) (@Yair_Rosenberg) April 30, 2018 Others offered a mashup with another Israeli Photoshop classic: Culture Minister Miri Regev's famous Jerusalem dress from last year's Cannes Film Festival. User Freddie the Bear posted an image of Regev in the dress, only this time the entire bottom half was printed with CD-ROMS. pic.twitter.com/OeWoFqYW14 — Freddie Bear® (@FtheBear) April 30, 2018 Too bad this year Regev will be skipping the festival entirely.
