    Israeli newspapers have printed photos of Defence Minister Amir Peretz trying to watch military manoeuvres through binoculars with the lens caps still on.

    Mr Peretz was inspecting troops in the Golan Heights with the Israeli army's new chief of staff, Gen Gabi Ashkenazi.

    According to the photographer, Mr Peretz looked through the capped binoculars three times, nodding as Gen Ashkenazi explained what was in view.

    According to the daily Yediot Ahronot newspaper, US President George W Bush and former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon have both done the same thing

    But has everyone been in such as a position of Defence Minister. I can understand if it is a average joe but come on this is one of the leader of the Israel military. If he merely put them on than brought them down and took the caps off on then I would understand but did he do this? no, he nodded and agreed with what the other guy was saying.
