Wow! This is an entire new unheard of level!

I will try to see if I can find an English version of the story.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I suspect it's a bluff intended to get the Arabs to jump at what ever deal he offers as an alternative at the last minute.

Still can't find English version.

Summary of the story is that a bunch of people working in one office all made orders on Nike's US website on Black Friday. The orders shipped, but at some point the local courier(GCX) was instructed to halt shipments. They even went further trying to retrieve items that had already been delivered. GCX say they are only a subcontractor for the international courier company, and have to follow orders from them. It is unclear why the orders were canceled.

Google not doing a terrible job. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=iw&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ynet.co.il%2Farticles%2F0%2C7340%2CL-5052273%2C00.html&edit-text=

Surprised author didn't mention the multiple basketball players who recently came out in agreement that the earth is flat.
