Presumed Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney will host a fundraising event in Jerusalem at $60,000 or more per plate on July 29, The Jerusalem Post learned on Wednesday.
Delegates are set to fly in from the US for the event, which a Republican source said would be a small meeting, but a big fundraiser.

Will he be like Adelson first bitch, Gingrich who said Palestinians are 'invented.people and his firsf executive.order would recognize Jerusalem.as the.official.capital.
