"...Israels mainstream media formed an unofficial alliance with the Left's "Anyone but Bibi" campaign.
That aggressive and obviously well-funded political operation was run by the One Voice and V15 (Victory in 2015) organizations, the former of which was apparently financed by the U.S. State Department to the tune of at least $250,000 and possibly much more.
The dirty trail apparently leads all the way to the White House, as the director of V15 is none other than Jeremy Bird, who was President Barack Obama's National Field Director in 2012. "
The entire editorial at Arutz Sheva Israel National News is well worth reading.
Thankfully wiser minds prevailed in Israel's election compared to results the leftist media led many to believe were inevitable. White House involvement and pay-offs to the campaign against Mr. Netanyahu, including to the "Anyone but Bibi" campaign should be investigated.
Hopefully the person that broke the story of State Department funding the effort to unseat Bibi stays safe.
Thanks for the ping!
Thanks for that. I appreciate you pointing it out as you did.
I heartily agree with your conclusion.
Thanks, bd476.
