Bodlim

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A bodel (plural bodlim) is usually a young Israeli, often a student, engaged as a gofer by the Mossad after a thorough check of his parentage and background. His job is to run errands and perform chores for the Mossad agents when required. He is prohibited from asking any questions and is only given any necessary information on a need to know basis. In return he is allowed to live without paying any rent in a Mossad safehouse. When visiting agents move in, the Bodel has to move out, but can be retained to do the shopping, cleaning and laundry.
