this article in the blogs and I saw everything what she did.

articies by my client, did you contact Mr. Seffi Magriso about this -- this photo?

is because I saw the blog...if he dont have a blog I would've not have
-- I would leave it alone, it's a joke...
Attorney: Okay. The
-- so, on that May -- on that May date; that was the first time that
you decided that you wanted to go and contact Mr. Magriso?

Raanan Katz: Yeah, from Haaretz.
Attorney: Was that before you saw the article, the photo, alleged photo in the -- in the blog?
Raanan Katz: I don't remember. She did a marvelous job is putting it nonstop, that's only what I looked like, okay, so.
Attorney: But you're not sure -
Raanan Katz: No -- no, you know, you know, let me
answer please, okay. You know, here you see another picture in her one
of her blogs. If she really want to be to be punk she could've had this,
you know, this picture instead of, you know, this one, okay. So, let's
say -- let's don't try to confuse me in some dates but go ahead...
Attorney: So, how -- how did you come to find this photo?
Raanan Katz: Sometimes somebody shows on the --
on the Internet and on the Internet, see I'm pretty popular, you know,
in Israel. And it shows there and he sent me this. And I usually had
just -- somebody had said me maybe I don't even say it at all. Right
now, the only reason I now said, actually I never said it. Only reason
it's here because your client decided to put it on you know to put it on
it -- on her blogs to get those some ugly situation blogs.
Attorney: Okay. So, this photo here, a minute ago you said -this photo would have been okay to put in the blog article?
Raanan Katz: Yes, yes. Well, it's not to kept
blog completely, because the blog is despicable -- make sure you
understand what I'm saying, but if you -- if you da something, if you
want to -- you can't let your life feel legit whatever it is, she
could've put a good picture instead of this ugly pictures that everybody
knows that this is certainly does look like me, look me underdressed,
okay, that's what I'm saying.
Attorney: So -- so, the difference between this
picture that we've been talking about and the other picture is that you
believe the picture that's an issue in the case is ugly?
Raanan Katz: That the picture is unfair, they make fun of me.
Attorney: It makes fun of you?
Raanan Katz: And that's exactly what's her
intention. To antagonize me, to help me in any way possible and to get
me upset. That's exactly what's -- what's her full-- her cause and we
can go to it later.
Attorney: Okay. So, if we put -- if she put this photo in an article about you that would be okay?
Raanan Katz: Nothing she do is okay, nothing, not
a -- nothing she's doing -- she doing is disgrace to the human race,
okay. Make sure you know you geb it; I'll say it in the court of law
under -- under oath, okay, completely. But I say -- but at least, if she
believe she want to make a point, and not to make a fool out of
herself, she should have put picture like this or like this or many
other pictures you can find on the -- on the Internet."
Well, no worries, Raanan, ...the good one is coming.. and I mean not only picture...
