"Israeli Ambassador to the US Sallai Meridor met with GOP Vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin on Monday during the latter's three-city tour in Virginia. Meridor also plans to meet with the Democratic vice presidential candidate, Joe Biden.
Palin greeted Ambassador Sallai Meridor and apologized for not being able to meet with him sooner. Somewhat enigmatically, she told the ambassador: "We look forward to ... working with your Jewish agency."

"Ambassador Meridor attempted to keep the meeting with Palin under wraps in order to refrain from appearing to intervene in the US election process, but the Republican vice candidate's campaign appeared interested in publicizing the encounter after a poll asserted Obama had won over the vast majority of American Jewish voters.
The Gallup poll found that 74% of Jewish voters support Obama, while just 22% support McCain. The poll also found that for many, the Republican nominee's choice of running mate was what pushed them towards his opponent."
