Yair Netanyahu and his friends hoped their night out would not be documented. Accompanied by a bodyguard and a driver provided by the state, the prime ministers son, the son of gas tycoon Kobi Maimon and Roman Abramov, a representative of billionaire James Packer, went touring strip clubs in Tel Aviv, paying for erotic dances and talking about the natural gas deal that had just been reached. On Monday night, the Israel Television News Company broadcast a recording made that night.
