From the news stories I have read, it was not for official business, but to express solidarity with Israel. So, who is on record as having funded this trip? Bloomberg himself or tax payers?
Bloomberg is a diplomat? I hadn’t heard that he represents the United States of America in an official capacity, only the city of New York.
Who is paying for the most recent trip to Israel by Mayor Bloomberg and police commissioner Ray Kelly?

Good question. Mayor Bloomberg is a billionaire so if the City of NY did not pay, then he could have sold a few shares of Bloomberg to fund the trip.
Well, that would be a diplomatic visit. I’d call that official.
City of New York
