Israel ahoy!

Having shied away from trips to Israel because of Left pressure during UPA I barring the odd exception the Congress is now going ahead with the same. Last week,MoS Prithviraj Chavan visited the country to seal some agreements in the field of Science and Technology. Some CMs too have gone. The Director of Intelligence Bureau visited Israel recently. But if there is one dignitary whom the Israelis appear to be waiting for keenly it is Defence Minister A K Antony. Having emerged as one of Indias biggest defence suppliers over the years,Israel is keen to cement the relationship at a political level. But as now,Antony appears far from obliging.
