Judy Shalom Nir Mozes is more than just the wife of Israeli Interior Minister Silvan Shalom; she is also a columnist for her family's well-read newspaper, Yedioth Ahronoth, and TV and radio host/commentator in her own right. And on Sunday, she tweeted her 75,000 Twitter followers:
She actually apologized twice more in English on Sunday, one tweet addressed to President Obama and the other trying out another joke, "I hope I will stay married when my husband will land and hear what I did." She probably doesn't have to worry on those grounds: This isn't Mozes' first brush with social media infamy, and she and her husband have been married since 1993.
