It’s clear how the White House feels about Benjamin Netanyahu on their home turf – the feather ruffling can be heard across the Mississippi – but it seems that some people very close to the Obama White House are making their feelings about Bibi known on Bibi’s home turf as well.

According to IMRA, a news source whose veracity I am, admittedly, unfamiliar with (via PJM, whose veracity is stellar), Jeremy Bird, the Obama campaign’s former national field director (and the one who sent about 50% of the endless campaign emails) is in Tel Aviv working for the “V-2015” campaign, which aims to elect anyone but Bibi in the Israel’s next national election.

Haaretz reporter Roi Arad revealed in an article in the Hebrew edition today [January 26] that the foreign funded organization, “One Voice”, is bankrolling the V-2015 campaign to defeat Binyamin Netanyahu’s national camp in the March 2015 Knesset Elections.

One indication of the generous financing is that it has now flown in a team of five American campaign experts (including Jeremy Bird, the Obama campaign’s national field director) who will run the campaign out of offices taking up the ground floor of a Tel Aviv office building.

V-2015 is careful not to support a specific party – rather “just not Bibi”. As such, the foreign funds pouring into the campaign are not subject to Israel’s campaign finance laws.

Of course, Mr. Bird could be taking up residence in Israel’s capitol because of his strong personal convictions on the subject of Israel’s future, but that seems like a bit of a longshot.
