Netanyahu's Dream of The Ides of March In Ancient Rome

Netanyahu's Dream of The Ides of March In Ancient Rome


Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was asleep in bed.


He was dreaming that he was in Ancient Rome during the Ides of March in 44 BC.


The Israeli Prime Minister saw Julius Caesar being stabbed.


He saw Caesar's face turning white as great Caesar's ghost when he was stabbed by Brutus.


As Caesar cried, "And thou, Brutus" and fell on to the marble steps, Netanyahu caught a glimpse of Brutus' face.


The Israeli Prime Minister awoke with a start.

He recognized the face of Brutus (the man who had betrayed and killed his friend Caesar) in the dream as the face of someone he Netanyahu had met and encountered in real life.


Netanyahu rubbed the sleep from his eyes.

But the face of Brutus in the dream suddenly vanished from his mind and memory.

Beware the Ides of March, Netanyahu recalled the soothsayer's cry in William Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar.

"Beware Saint Patrick's Day," a tourist group of Irish Alcoholics' Anonymous members shouted in unison as they passed an ad for Guinness in the streets of Jerusalem some blocks away.


To be continued.
