Barack Obama sure knows how handle an audience. When a lone heckler yelling in Hebrew (allegedly about an American citizen arrested for passing classified information to the Israeli government in the ’80s) interrupted the President’s speech to a group of 600 college students in Jerusalem, Obama handled it like a well-seasoned pro. In the video above, watch the president pause, put a hand to his ear and wait for the heckler to give up. “This is part of the lively debate we talked about,” he said. (Cue the standing ovation.) “I have to say we actually arranged that because it made me feel at home. I wouldn’t feel comfortable if I didn’t have at least one heckler.”
