Israeli celebrity chef Moshe Segev sparked a diplomatic incident last week after a meal he cooked for Japanese leader Shinzo Abe and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and their wives concluded with a dessert of chocolates served in a metal shoe — shoes on tables being a definite no-no in Japan (and, to be clear, in the Allison household as well). Signal suspects that the bigger source of indigestion for the pair was Abe’s formal meeting with Bibi, where he communicated his support for the Iran nuclear deal, a two-state solution for Israel-Palestine, and said that Japan would not be following the US in moving its Israeli embassy to Jerusalem.
