I dont know the story behind it. The PM's twitter account posted the picture today online. Even not knowing the story, the image of the national airline (even though it no longer has that official status) needing a torah, and the prime minister writing a letter in said torah, is a unique idea.
I am told it is not a pencil, but is a special quill made with a plastic holder (designed I guess like a pencil) for comfort. you can look closely at the tip and you will see it does not look like a pencil
The first PM since Begin to whom this would have any meaning and one of the only members of Kennesset -- other than those from the religious parties -- for whom this would have any meaning.
I missed this story - why is a new sefer Torah being written for El Al?
