A powerful U.S. Senate investigatory committee has launched a bipartisan probe into an American nonprofit’s funding of efforts to oust Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the Obama administration’s State Department gave the nonprofit taxpayer-funded grants, a source with knowledge of the panel’s activities told FoxNews.com.
The fact that both Democratic and Republican sides of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations have signed off on the probe could be seen as a rebuke to President Obama, who has had a well-documented adversarial relationship with the Israeli leader.
The development comes as Netanyahu told Israel’s Channel Two television station this week that there were “governments” that wanted to help with the “Just Not Bibi” campaigning — Bibi being the Israeli leader’s nickname.
It also follows a FoxNews.com report on claims the Obama administration has been meddling in the Israeli election on behalf of groups hostile to Netanyahu. A spokesperson for Sen. Rob Portman, Ohio Republican and chairman of the committee, declined comment, and aides to ranking Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill, of Missouri, did not immediately return calls.

Every US administration over the last 20 years (or more) has financed various groups to help swing elections in various countries…GW Bush helped the Labour Party in the UK to successive election wins to maintain the partnership that he had developed with Tony Blair….so what makes this any different??? Bibi is a war monger whose own foriegn intelligence agency (Mossad) don’t believe a word he says have they have open criticized him for wrongly stating the danager that Iran poses….it doesn’t pose a threat to either Israel or world security…he is an idiot that needs to go and hopefully the Israeli people will help him on his way!!!!
