Spock violates the Prime Directive

Shocka, right? But Spock’s alter ego, Leonard Nimoy, is obviously less prudent than the pointy-eared one when it comes to not interfering in the internal development of other civilizations.

Hence his Hollyweird-esque meddling in Israeli domestic policy. Nimoy, who cribbed his split-fingers “live long and prosper” from Israel’s ancient high priests (without, natch, any attribution), should know better.

    Another star wants to teach the world how to behave. So what else is new…

    I always thought of him as a space alien with a broomstick up his, ahem. Supposedly smarter than everyone else. Little did they know he was cribbing from the Talmud.

    Well, no wonder Spock was so smart. He was a Yeshiva graduate!

      Which explains why he knew about the high priest’s split-finger salute, but not the rest….
