US Vice President Biden Accidentally Flashes Media With Classified Document Titled ‘CODEWORD’

Vice President Joe Biden appeared Monday, September 30, 2013, to show the cover of a codeword-classified document to reporters during a meeting between President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The contents of the document, which read “CODEWORD” and “classified document,” could not be seen in the photo.

What is “CODEWORD”? Any idea as to what this means?

Absent-minded: Vice President Joe Biden appears to be daydreaming as he reveals the front cover of a classified document during a press event at the White House on Monday, September 30, 2013.

Gaffe: In a photograph published by AFP/Getty Images, the binder clearly shows the title ‘Codeword: Classified Document’ emblazoned across it

The contents of the folder, however, could not be seen in the picture.

Biden had been holding talks with President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Oval Office over Iran and Syria, the White House told The New York Post.
