WND ^ | 3/17/14 | Aaron Klein

TEL AVIV – In recent weeks, representatives for the Obama administration have held meetings with a senior politician here in which the U.S. delegates brought up the possibility of replacing Benjamin Netanyahu as prime minister, according to an informed Jerusalem diplomatic source.

The meetings were held with Israel’s popular finance minister, Yair Lapid, founder and leader of the Yesh Atid Party, which became the second-largest party in the Knesset winning 19 seats in the last election.

The diplomatic source said the Obama administration identified Lapid as a moderate who could be helpful in pushing the Israeli government into accepting the framework to create a future Palestinian state.

According to the source, the talks included the possibility of Lapid bolting Netanyahu’s government if the prime minister rejects the U.S.-brokered regional talks.

They don't want Lapid. They want a "Lap Dog".

Maybe we should mind our own business as to who their elected leaders are.

If the Jews do anything that Obama wants, they assure their doom.

I truly hope that Israeli Jews are not as completely politically stupid as American Jews appear to be.

To vote for, support, or refrain from tossing feces at any liberal is to show your idiocy.

I remember when the Obama administration took the reins. They pompously claimed they would never interfere in other nations business, like Bush.

We found out that the exact opposite is what they did. I am sure they are already agitating in Israel as they do everywhere else.

I wouldn’t put it passed Obama to push for forced “regime change”.

I’d be happier if the Israelis stuck their nose in our business and began exerting pressure here for a “moderate leader”.

Many Israelis are suicidal - anything for ‘peace’ and are regularly mocked by other Israelis.

Just a minor change to your excellent diagnosis of the meddling Obozoites.

“We remember when the Obama administration took the reins. They pompously claimed they would never interfere in other nations business, like Bush.

We found out that the exact opposite is what they did. We are sure they are already agitating in Israel as they do everywhere else.”

During WWII they served as Kapos and members of the Judenrat.

“Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Libya and Ukraine worked out sooooo well.”

What a terrible track record.
