"One day, I came to the Knesset expecting the regular level of chaos and uncertainty. Instead, a few hours into the day, Israel's Labor Party imploded. The Knesset press corps ran from office to office, meeting to meeting, trying to make sense of what happened. For me - it was my first real venture into real-time Tweeting, which added a further element of suspense. At some point, I found Ben - the Jpost's in-house videographer - and we got then-MK Einat Wilf to explain what had happened."
