Psychic helps Israeli tourism
Israel enlisted a celebrity psychic to encourage tourism.
Uri Geller, who lives in Britain but has spent the last few months in his native Israel hosting a television contest for aspiring paranormals, was recently approached by the Tourism Ministry in Jerusalem, Army Radio revealed Monday.
The ministry requested that Geller help it come up with ways of encouraging more foreigners to visit Israel, and he agreed.
“Geller is seen as a serious player in the world,” Nachum Itzkovitz, the minister’s director-general, told Army Radio.
“If we manage to market the State of Israel via Uri Geller, we’ve done our job.”
Geller confirmed to JTA that talks were under way with the Tourism Ministry.
