The spouse of the Israeli Interior Minister has apologized for an “inappropriate joke” about US President Barack Obama. “Do u know what Obama Coffee is? Black and weak,” Judy Shalom Nir-Mozes posted on Twitter, addressing her 74,400 followers.
The tweet caused outrage online, with hundreds accusing the wife
of minister Silvan Shalom of being “arrogant,” a
“disgrace,” and “explicitly racist,” the Times
of Israel reported.
Several hours later, she deleted the tweet, and stated on her
Twitter account, “I apologize, that was a stupid joke
somebody told me.”

Nir-Mozes made an apology following the stunt, and sent a tweet,
directly addressing the US president.
“President Obama I shouldn’t have written the inappropriate
joke I heard. I like people no matter about their race and
religion,” she said.

I heard. I like people no matter about their race and religion.

Nir-Mozes concluded by expressing hopes her husband would not
divorce her when “he lands” and hears the news.
“Sorry if I caused any offence to anyone. I hope I will stay
married when my husband will land and hear what I did,” she
added.
It is not the first time that the Interior Minister’s wife posted
tweets targeting the US President. Only last month, she was
accused of trolling Obama after he opened his own individual
Twitter account. Nir-Mozes tweeted a poorly spelt message that
said, she hopes the president will “write from The hurt of
barack, and not from the head of Rrsedent Obama [sic].”
The tweet was also deleted shortly after it was posted, while
Nir-Mozes denied having published it. However, Israeli journalist
Tal Schneider took a screenshot of the tweet. He also commented
on the typos, saying that she probably meant to write
“heart” instead of “hurt.”
The fact that Nir-Mozes’s husband is responsible for strategic
relations with the US has also not helped matters, according to
critics.
Nir-Mozes hosts a weekly radio show, and participates in TV
programs. She is known for posting scandalous messages, as well
as criticizing social and political issues.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is among her other most
famous targets.
