PS

It was not all one-way. The Russians would have been tipped off about this phone tapping by the Master Spy Kim Philby who was a top ranker in the British Intelligence. The Russians used the tapped telephone line to give doctored information to the Americans, who believed that they had got a scoop.

Donald Trump joke

Donald Trump goes on a fact-finding visit to Israel. While he is on a tour of Jerusalem he suffers a heart attack and dies.

The undertaker tells the American diplomats accompanying him, 'You can have him shipped home for $50,000, or you can bury him here, in the Holy Land for just $100.”

The American diplomats go into a corner to discuss for a few minutes. They return with their answer to the undertaker and tell him they want Donald Trump shipped home.

The undertaker is puzzled and asks, “Why would you spend $50,000 to ship him home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only $100?”

The American diplomats reply, “Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. We just can't take the risk.”
