Israel’s prime minister showed off the memento in a video posted to his Facebook page, which shows the syringe mounted in a glass box with a wooden plaque.
"Every time someone visits from abroad, I show them this arrowhead," Mr Netanyahu says while pointing to a display case in his office featuring a replica of a Roman arrowhead from Yodfat, which he says was the first Galilee fortress to fall to the Romans, according to a translation from Israeli newspaper Haaretz. "I tell them, that's the Romans, they're not here anymore."
The same display also features a model of the Israeli Arrow anti-ballistic missile.
The prime minister then moves on to another display case showing his syringe, adding: "And now I show them something else, another arrow.
"This is the syringe that gave me the first vaccine out of the millions of vaccines that we brought to Israel. We'll be the first country in the world to exit the coronavirus [crisis]. With faith, anything is possible."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLUUUZWjfGkNarrator: So Israel sold this device to Hezbollah. Hezbollah paid for this—this weapon that was to be used against them.
Michael: Then good price. A good price that couldn't be too low, or they'd be suspicious.
Narrator: In the end, Hezbollah bought over 16,000 of these exploding walkie-talkies that Israel then didn't activate for 10 years—until 3 months ago.
Narrator: How did you convince Hezbollah to buy this?
Michael: Well, obviously, they didn't know that they were buying it from Israel. Who did they buy it from, or think they were buying it from? We have an incredible array of possibilities of creating foreign companies that have no way been traced back to Israel. Shell companies over shell companies who affect the supply chain to our favor. We create a pretend world. We are a global production company. We write the screenplay. We're the directors with the producers. We're the main actors. And the world is our stage.
Narrator: This is Mossad's old office. Its motto, from Proverbs 24:6, says, in so many words, "wage war through deception and trickery.
Narrator: Mossad wanted to use the name Gold Apollo on its pager, so it set up shell companies—including one in this building in Hungary—to dupe the Taiwanese into partnering with them.
Narrator: So the company in Taiwan, Gold Apollo—did they know that they were working with people from Mossad?
Gabriel: Gold Apollo had zero clue that they are working with the Mossad. And neither did Hezbollah when they are buying from us—they have zero clue that they are buying from the Mossad. We make, like, Truman Show. Everything is controlled by us behind the scenes. In their experience, everything is normal. Everything was 100% culture—including businessmen, marketing, engineers, showroom, everything.
