There was a video that was linked on FR a few days ago that came from an Alaskan tourist host. He went walking to work with Gov. Palin from her house to the State House in Juneau. Antway, when he got to her office, they were standing in front of her desk and talking. My wife and I both noticed, stuck in the left side of her window sill was a small Israeli flag.
So, that’s not a rumor...it’s true. As for the pin...that, I don’t know.
