Activists in Tel Aviv working for the “V15” campaign to dump Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu are delivering a message strangely similar to that of President Barack Obama when he campaigned in 2008.
Hope. Change. They were the heart of Obama’s platform nearly seven years ago.
As seen and heard in the video below, Tel Aviv activists for V15, heavily funded by foreign donations, don’t have much else to say.
Michael Ganoe, a very pro-Israel Christian from West Virginia who hosts a radio show heard in the United States, interviewed activists as part of his Insight to Israel/Hershey’s for Heroes imitative.
Here is a bit of the dialogue between Ganoe and a Tel Aviv activist:
Activist: We stand for the hope to bring more change…. We don’t feel there is any hope.
Ganoe: What is there about the government you do not like?
Activist: We don’t like the cynical use of no hope.
Ganoe: What do you thing is the biggest problem with Israel?
Activist: No hope. There is no hope. There is no way to change
Ganoe: But what are you trying to change?
Activist: We are trying to bring hope.
The fingerprints of Jeremy Bird, Obama’s National Field Director, are all over the V15 campaign that he is helping to direct.
V15, like the 2008 Obama election campaign, has one message, and that is “hope” for change, meaning getting rid of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu no matter who would take his place.
Obama offered “hope” and “change,” and America got it in spades.
