Washington (CNN)—House Speaker John Boehner will travel to Jerusalem sometime in the next two weeks to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a top Israeli government official told CNN Friday.
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.

Good, should make the drive-by media's heads explode.
Perhaps he's seeking Bibi's advice on how to stand up to barack hussein the slithering snake obama.
Okay . . . what will Boehner do there?
Pharaoh Obama will not be pleased.
Don’t forget to check Boehner for Bugs

Obama isn't a friend of Israel, so good on Boehner.
Nice to see Boehner reaching out to a conservative for a change.
Boehner might amount to something after all.
How about passing something ,anything Supporting Israel first
I would rub this in OBOLA’S FACE! Begin a victory dance immediately and tell the b****** commie in chief to go eat dog!!!!
I’d expect top on the agenda to be Iran sanctions, and possible legislation to that effect. The ‘Rats right now have a “deal” with Boehner to delay them.
Maybe Boner can take back some of Bibi’s courage juice from the Holy Land.
Change the locks while he’s gone
Boehner was one of those Republicans whose conference call was eavesdropped on by the Democrat operatives from FL who sent the recording to McDermott years back. I think Gingrich was another one.
I doubt he’ll forget it.
Who cares. It will cause left wing heads to explode.
McDermott of course was infatuated with palistinian Islamic radicals like the al Arians.
he will show what America is, what leadership looks like and that America is not the Black plague that is Obama
Rub it in your face nobama!
Hopefully Bibi will give them some secret intel about our mooslim dicktator.
Better get prepared people the war has not yet begun but it is coming at a faster rate since Bibi has been re-elected. Obolas handlers are pissed.
Thomas Sowell may well have been prophetic in his prediction.
