Leftist bloggers from the United States will visit Israel this week on a tour organized by the Solomon Project organization and supported by the Foreign Ministry.  Among those participating will be an editor and lobbyist from the popular extreme-left sites “Daily Kos” and “Moveon.org.”

The bloggers will meet Israeli bloggers, politicians, and journalists.  They will tour Sderot and will be taken on a helicopter tour to see Israel’s borders as defined by the 1948 armistice line, in order to show them the difficulty of defending the country prior to the 1967 Six Day War.
