Conan O'Brien visits Israel

What do you do if you very unfunny? You basically go to Israel because in the US it will guarantee favorable coverage.  O'Brien has not been able to be funny once in his life and thinks that by invoking his Harvard education he compensates for lack of humor.  In visiting Israel, he displays deep ignorance and again total lack of a sense of humor. But he likes Israeli breakfast made of Shakshukeh: Someone needs to explain to me why Israeli dishes have Arabic names.  Anyone?
