Obama trying to unseat Israeli leader Bibi?

News From Jerusalem:  Is President Obama attempting to unseat Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and replace him with a leftist leader who largely toes the line set by the president for the Middle East?

There are indications the so-called social protests rocking Israel were engineered for that very purpose.

According to an investigative report in Israel's Maariv's newspaper, the country's protests were engineered by a group of media strategists directed by prominent Democratic strategist Stanley Greenberg, a former adviser to Bill Clinton, John Kerry and others.

Greenberg reportedly is working with Israeli strategists who were behind left-wing leader Ehud Barak's successful race for prime minister in 1999. Greenberg himself helped to run Barak's campaign.

Barak currently is the defense minister in a coalition government with Netanyahu.

Last week, WND reported Greenberg previously ran the campaign of Bolivia's former president, who was ushered into office amid escalating social protests in that country.

After Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada took power in Bolivia, he quickly implemented an economic "shock therapy" crafted by Jeffrey Sachs, a Columbia University professor who sits on the board of an organization literally seeking to reorganize the entire global economic system.

That group is the Institute for New Economic Thinking, or INET.

Philanthropist George Soros is INET's founding sponsor, with the billionaire having provided a reported $25 million over five years to support INET activities.
