Rand Paul heads to Israel

Via David Brody, confirmation of a trip that’s been rumored for a little while, and another signal of Rand Paul’s national intentions:

“A top advisor to Rand Paul tells us that the senator will travel to Israel and Jordan for the first time to meet with leaders on all sides of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.

The trip will be privately funded, and The Brody File has learned that Sen. Paul will be accompanied by Christian and Jewish leaders. The trip is planned for January. They will tour all of the major historical and cultural sites.”
