As debate over congressional travel bans continues, Extreme Mortman has been entertained by what William Daroff, vice president for public policy of the United Jewish Communities, has to say. According to the Jewish Week, here’s what he told the House Rules Committee:

Daroff said the Jewish community supports stronger accountability rules for congressional travel, but he also stressed the difference between “so-called junkets, where members spend time on golf courses or at roulette wheels, and the trips the Jewish community sponsors, whether to look at domestic social service agencies or to Israel. I still haven’t seen Israel’s one golf course, except from the air.”

Which leads to this Extreme trivia question. What is Israel’s one golf course? The 18-hole course at the Dan Caesarea Hotel.

Israel  All Things Daroff
