Get ready to laugh...
The Swedish Press is reporting tonight that Israel has recalled its ambassador to El Salvador after being found tied up in his own garden, with "a number of sex toys around him. The man was noticably drunk and found with a muzzle." the article states.
It continues with the 'this isn't consistent with a diplomat's mission' b.s. from a spokesman and a bit of history on other unflattering Israeli diplomatic behavior like a 2000 incident where the ambassador to France died of a heart attack in a Paris hotel with a woman who was not his wife.
Other incidents included a change in diplomats to Australia following some condescending remarks regarding Asians and an apointee who had been downloading porn while stationed in Brazil.
[UPDATE 12:01 AM] OK, SNM MSM is starting to report on this now.

Israel Recalls El Salvador Ambassador Who Was Found Naked, Drunk, Bound
JERUSALEM Mar 12, 2007 (AP)— Israel has recalled its ambassador to El Salvador after he was found naked, bound and drunk, according to Israeli media reports confirmed Monday by a government spokeswoman.
The longtime diplomat, Tsuriel Raphael, has been removed from his post and the Foreign Ministry has begun searching for a replacement, said ministry spokeswoman Zehavit Ben-Hillel.
Two weeks ago, El Salvador police found Raphael in the yard of his residence, tied up, gagged with a ball and drunk, Israeli media reported. He was wearing sex bondage equipment, the media said. After he was untied, Raphael told police he was the ambassador of Israel, the reports said.
Ben-Hillel said the reports were accurate and that Raphael has been recalled, although he did not break any laws.
The embarrassing affair was one of several involving Israeli diplomats in recent years. In 2000, Israel's ambassador to France died of cardiac arrest in a Paris hotel under circumstances the Foreign Ministry refused to publicize. Media reports said he was with a woman who was not his wife at the time.
Last year, Israel replaced its ambassador to Australia, Naftali Tamir, after he said Israel and Australia are "like sisters" because both are located in Asia and their peoples don't have the Asian characteristics of "yellow skin and slanted eyes."
In 2005, Israel canceled the appointment of a diplomat to Australia after it was discovered that he published pictures of nude Brazilian women on the Internet while on a mission in Brazil.
