There are embarrassing photo-op fails. And then there is this.

When German Chancellor Angela Merkel traveled to Jerusalem to talk Iran with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, she probably didn’t see this coming. After all it’s just a fleeting moment caught (super awkwardly) on camera, but despite some media outlets avoiding the photo, it cannot be untaken.

Hopefully it can at least be forgotten, just don’t count on it in this news cycle.
