Former US President Bill Clinton admitted Tuesday that he intervened in the Israeli elections in 1996 to help then-Prime Minister Shimon Peres defeat rival Binyamin Netanyahu.
"It would be fair to say that I tried to help Peres win the elections, and I tried to help him in such a way that I would not be openly involved," Clinton said in an interview with Israel's Channel 10 News.
"I tried to help him, because I thought he was a bigger supporter of the peace process, and I tried to do it in a way that served, in my opinion, Israel's interests, without saying anything about the differences in domestic policy," he added.
Clinton's efforts to help Peres failed as the increase in acts of terrorism against Israeli civilians which followed the signing of the Oslo Accords led Israelis to elect Netanyahu for his first term as Prime Minister.
He described his first meeting with Netanyahu in the White House following the election. "He wanted me to know that he knew that I did not support him, and that he defeated us anyway. He behaved in a manner that is very typical of Bibi, but I understood that he was the leader of the state now, and if I wanted to try to support peace I had to find a way to work with him. I was just embarrassed by the audacity with which he conducted himself, but that's who he is."
Clinton blamed the current Netanyahu government for the failure to reach a peace deal with the Palestinian Authority, despite his own failure to broker a peace deal between former Israeli Prime Miniser Ehud Barak and Palestinian Authority leader Yasser Arafat.

Yup. I was a Chinese agent, gave them all the ballistics secrets they wanted. They paid, but I would have done it for free. I did have sex with that woman, and that one and that one. Hillary was a bull dike and wouldn’t touch me with a ten foot pole. What’s a boy to do? Top of the world, ma! Yeah, the boy is mine, and I leave my entire fortune to...goodbye, mister chips. Croak.
Perfect record.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
We knew this all the time. And later on, when Ehud Barak ran against Netanyahu, Clinton sent the lizard man, James Carville, to help.
Has anyone sent this story to the MSNBC bimbos? Or the Morning Joe Sycophants?

It was so obvious back then so it isn't news now. What happened then and since then is that every time Israel holds a national election, Democratic political operatives from the US are sent to Israel to organize for the left-leaning Israeli candidate whom they think has a chance of winning the Israeli election. It happens regardless of whether the Democrats hold the White House.
All of these shenanigans are an insult to Israel and her autonomy as a democratic (small "d") nation.
And now that their favorite evil harpy lost despite all the lies and fake polling, they are crying foul based on a made-up phony story about Russia, as if they and the candidates they backed were not in bed together, and as if the burden is on Trump to prove a negative. I’ll bet they’ve done this in other elections in other countries so often they’ve lost count.
Not just “likely” with NK. Clinton admitted that one openly and even held press conferences on that.

This wasn't a secret. It's not a crime. Obama interfered in Israel's elections too. It's what dems do. Lying about it, sleazy, but look who we're talking about. Why he needs to bring it up now is a mystry. Related threads
He’s saying this because Hillary’s not getting respect anymore. Her speaker fees are way down, and people in the DNC are telling her to shut up. So he’s going to undermine the Russia Russia Russia story, and then maybe even...GASP!...pay Trump a left-handed compliment.
1996 eh?
I think he meddled in that election to please Iranian donors like this guy, whose sister is the wife of a British diplomat/Obama era ambassador to the US:
NOVEMBER 1995 : (IRANIAN-AMERICAN DEMOCRAT DONOR HASSAN NEMAZEE [see ASIA SOCIETY, BANK FRAUD] HOSTS A DINNER FEATURING VICE PRESIDENT AL GORE WHICH RAISED $250,000 FOR THE DNC) November 1995 he hosted a dinner featuring Al Gore, raising $250,000 for the Democratic National Committee-———http://www.forbes.com/forbes/1999/0503/6309142a_print.html
Recall that Nemazee is also related to the Cisneros family of Venezuela.
