Back from Israel

Holy Bagel

Well I am back from Israel and it was amazing. I heard from some great speakers and learned a lot of stuff that was presented in an off the record fashion. That being said I can't discuss particulars of what people said, but I can tell you that the experience will last with me forever.

I had the opportunity to meet with members of the Jerusalem Bomb Squad and got to see the Robot they use in sticky situations. I also had the chance to meet with Miri Eisen the former Spokeswomen for Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.

The highlight of the trip for me was visiting the Knesset. It was great to see the facility and to gain an understanding of a different political system. I met with the youngest member of the Knesset, as well as several high profile Knesset staffers.

The trip was truly amazing and I can't wait to be in Washington, D.C. tomorrow!!
