Poker

Dry Bones cartoon: Egypt, Arab Spring, Arabs, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Tunisia, Iran, Israel, poker
I don't play poker.
I don't know how to play poker.
I never learned to play poker.

Somewhere in Israel's defense and intelligence world our political and strategic experts are assessing our risks, figuring out the odds, and working out a game plan for Israel's survival in the rapidly changing situation.

I wish them well
but I wouldn't want to have their jobs.
It's too much like poker.

Poker?? And here I thought Shuldig had a rather whist-full expression on his face!

Even the best poker player sometimes loses.

I've heard of a poker face, but this is poker eyes.

Good one

I didn't poke 'er! I wouldn't touch her with a bargepole...

Poker's for those who gamble wildly. Israel can only afford to take calculated risks if the odds are in her favour. What is Einstein supposed to have said? -God doesn't play dice with the universe.
