103 Congress members to Israel in 2005

103 Congress members to Israel in 2005

Interesting tidbit from the Israeli press:

In his summary to the Israeli Cabinet this week on relations with the United States, Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said 23 U.S. senators and 80 members of the U.S. House of Representatives visited Israel last year, some multiple times.

“The legislative branch has maintained its unique and long-standing status as a stronghold of support for Israel, transcending party lines and Congressional houses.”


That's sure gonna help win hearts and minds on the streets of Iraq...
