WASHINGTON — Jeremy Bird, the architect of the grass-roots and online organizing efforts that powered President Obama’s presidential campaigns from Chicago, is advising a similar operation in Tel Aviv. But this time it is focused on ousting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel.

His consulting work for the group V15 — an independent Israeli organization that does not support specific candidates but is campaigning to replace Israel’s current government — has added yet another political layer to the diplomatic mess surrounding Mr. Netanyahu’s decision to address a joint meeting of Congress next week on Iran.

The White House has argued that Mr. Netanyahu’s plan to deliver the speech on March 3, two weeks before the Israeli elections, is harming the United States-Israel relationship by injecting partisanship. Republicans contend it is Mr. Obama who is playing politics and cite the work of Mr. Bird as proof that the president is quietly rooting for the defeat of his Israeli counterpart.

The question:
Are the Israeli Jews this stupid?

This is a national IQ test.

Why hasn’t Bird been deported? Would European nations, China or Russia tolerate such meddling?

Many Israeli Jews are that stupid. Israel has a Left that is every bit as destructive as the American Left and more overtly self-destructive. Some of the wealthiest Democrat donors are Jews. The Hollywood left is largely Jewish amd most of those people would love to see Israel disappear. They fear a new Holocaust like other Jews but they think that it is necessary to prove that they hate Jewishness just as much as the anti Semites do in order to show that they are inoffensive and thus to stave off Holocaust. Then there is Soros who is a megalomaniac and evil regardless of his ethnicity.

Unless Israel has skin color voters, this should fail.

Hussein would rocket Bibi in his own office if he could get away with it. Bibi is not safe in the US.

Hussein just offed Nemtsov. There are a lot of dead politicians around this muslim.

Clinton was the first to pull this crap in Israel and they let him get away with it.

This bird-brain needs to be expelled from Israel.
