irony in the news

I saw the following updates in a Whatsapp news group I am in..



they came one after the other...

the first says Minister Ayelet Shaked on Twitter: During a political campaign we can adhere to respectful dialogue. This evening I signed on to the "clean elections treaty" of Rabbanei Tzohar.

the next says Yair Netanyahu on Facebook: Guy Peleg is simply Satan

talk about irony!

  1. How is that ironic? That is a completely normal comment from (a) Netanyahu, especially Yair.

  2. How is that ironic? Shaked isn't in the same party as Netanyahu.
    More importantly, neither Yair Netanyahu nor Guy Peleg is running for anything.

    1. no, he isnt running, but Yair Netanyahus is being very vocal in these elections for the Likud and specifically for his father so he is relevant. And even though they are different people, two notices one after the other, one talking about keeping it clean and the other about someone being satan, is still ironic
