JERUSALEM (JTA) — House Speaker Paul Ryan led a bipartisan delegation of U.S. congressmen who met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem.
“The delegation expressed strong support for Israel,” said a short statement issued Monday by the Prime Minister’s Office following the meeting.
Israel is the first foreign country that Ryan, R-Wis., has visited since becoming speaker of the House of Representatives in October.
The delegation arrived in Israel on Sunday and is scheduled to meet with senior Israeli government officials “to discuss the important relationship between our two countries as well as security issues affecting the region and the world,” according to a statement from Ryan’s office.
Upon arriving in Israel, Ryan said in a statement: “I’m proud that my first trip as speaker is a return to Israel. At this critical moment, it is essential that we reaffirm the historic alliance between our two nations and work together to address the mutual security threats that we face.”
The congressional delegation led by Ryan includes the chairman of two House committees: Rep. Mac Thornberry, R-Texas, House Armed Services, and Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
As he arrived in Israel, Ryan tweeted: “At this critical moment, it is essential that we reaffirm the historic alliance between America & #Israel.”

It is simply nauseating how American congress prostitutes race to suck Nut-in-Yahoo. How can decent Americans watch this on their televisions, or reas about it, and stay sane and silent?
He is going for the annointing at the GOP convention ,and the plot is on to stop Trump !
Even Trumps recovery in Wisconsin as we speak is being ignored.
New poll has Trump up by 10 ….Breitbart and Infowars report !
Washington Post calls it ,” alarming “.
A job interview. How sweet.
I made this image of Paul Ryan during the 2012 elections.
I wasn’t even sure if Ryan was indeed a true Likudist at the time. Now there is no question.
Another one with the umbilical cord syndrome.
Wow that would be a lot of ropes just in DC alone. What about 530+ in Congress?
I recommend everyone reading this buy the book “A World of Trouble” by Patrick Tyler. After they read this book, they will want to join a militia to overthrow the Zionist Occupied Government.
