Republicans are opening a new front in their
campaign to undercut the Commander In Chief. Speaker of the House John
Boehner will be going to Israel to meet with Netanyahu around the same
time that the White House expects an agreement to be reached on Iran’s
nuclear program.
Boehner spokesman Kevin
Smith confirmed the visit, which will take place during the Easter
recess and marks Boehner’s first trip to the nation since becoming
Speaker. His last visit was in 2008.
“The Speaker will visit Israel during the next
district work period. He looks forward to visiting the country,
discussing our shared priorities for peace and security in the region,
and further strengthening the bond between the United States and
Israel,” Smith said.
According to Israeli newspaper Haaretz, the
speaker’s trip will begin March 31, and he’ll be leading a congressional
delegation of Republican lawmakers.
