More questions on the Cantor story

OK, so we got Cantor meeting with Bibi before he meets with the Secretary of State and promises to keep the President under his thumb (in his dreams).

Then we have Marco Rubio, newly annointed Prince of Teabaggers, hopping a plane 2-3 days after the election to go on a 'private and personal' vacay to Israel.

Note: 'no official meetings or media interviews, and specific details of the trip will be kept private.’

So, I did a little scanning and what do I find?

As Barak's camp stepped up attacks on Ashkenazi, public sympathy has grown for the IDF chief, evidenced by polls and public statements. His popularity now threatens not only Barak but also the leaders of the major parties, and is being felt abroad as well. Florida's newly elected senator, Marco Rubio, a possible Republican presidential candidate in 2012, requested and received a meeting with Ashkenazi during his visit to Israel last week. Along with American politicians, donors and admirers are certain to step in line when the election approaches.

emphasis mine

So, what gives, eh? Marco injecting himself into Israel politics on a private and personal vacay? Pourquoi?

who make millions selling to Israel.
