    Default Putin to visit Israel in June

    Russian President-elect Vladimir Putin wants to visit Israel in June, and has expressed interest in unveiling a monument in Netanya honoring Jewish Red Army soldiers who fought in World War II, a senior Israeli official told Haaretz on Monday.

    There have been no talks about specific arrangements because Putin has yet to be inaugurated, the source said. After he is sworn in on May 7, Israel is expected to begin preparing for his visit, the date of which will be formally announced, the official said.

    Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called Putin earlier this month to congratulate him on winning the presidential election. Netanayhu's aides issued a statement saying the two discussed the Middle East situation and the Iranian nuclear program.

    Netanyahu invited Putin to visit Israel and received an invitation from him to visit Moscow.

    Netanyahu met with Putin in Moscow in February 2010, and the two announced they would set up a monument in Netanya to commemorate Jewish soldiers who served in the Red Army during World War II. The monument, designed by three Russian artists in the shape of a labyrinth, is about to be completed and Putin would like to unveil it, the Israeli official said.

    Putin last visited Israel in April 2005, when Ariel Sharon was prime minister. The highly irregular visit took place on Passover, with only three weeks' notice. Israel lobbied unsuccessfully to get the visit postponed.

    I doubt anyone could guarantee his safety. Biden has been urging him to go... ordering sightseeing and tourism packets in BO's name.

    I heard Joel Rosenberg talking about this the other day. Putin is the only Russian leader ever to visit Israel.
    It is very significant that Putin's second out-of-country visit will be to Israel; the first will be to the G8 meeting in the US in May.

    The guy who wrote this is named "Barak"?
    Ioan 14:6 Dicit ei Iesus ego sum via et veritas et vita nemo venit ad Patrem nisi per me.

    Romani 10:9 quia si confitearis in ore tuo Dominum Iesum et in corde tuo credideris quod Deus illum excitavit ex mortuis salvus eris

    I don't always double down on failure,
    but when I do,
    I vote for Obama,

    Stay jobless, my friends.

    Putin to visit Israel in June.............. maybe getting an advanced first hand preview of the spoil. Ezekiel 38:12-13
    1 CORINTHIANS 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

    ROMANS 1:16-17 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
    For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
