Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu visited the American ambassador's office. Photographers saw a strange Russian phrase written on his work folder.

The Prime Minister had to explain the words on the folder. He said his assistant wrote the phrase using internal office language.

The phrase meant \"talking with foreign partners about plans.\" This was just office talk, not for people outside the office.

The folder held plans for talking to American news groups. \"Progrev\" meant \"preparing the audience,\" and \"Goys\" meant \"foreign officials.\"

The Prime Minister's office said it would change its folder rules. From now on, they will write all labels only in Hebrew.
