Israel Matzav

Look who's voting for Bibi

As dumb as this video probably looks to those used to slick American election campaigns, this is actually much more impressive than most of the campaign videos here.

Let's go to the videotape.



The video was produced by Israeli political consultant Jonny Daniels.

The short clip, which is to air on various TV stations in Israel, as well as being posted on YouTube, features “The Donald” and his trademark hardened stare. “I’m a big fan of Israel and frankly a strong prime minister is a strong Israel, and you truly have a great prime minister in Benjamin Netanyahu. There’s nobody like him, he’s a winner, he’s highly respected, he’s highly thought of by all,” Trump says. “Vote for Benjamin: terrific guy, terrific leader, great for Israel.”

Daniels said he approached Trump knowing of his affection for Netanyahu. “He is a big, big fan of the prime minister and wanted to do whatever he could do to help,” Daniels said.

Daniels hopes that the video shows the Israeli people that their current government has the support of people in the United States. “It’s a clear message to the Israeli people that we have not just support, but people behind us in America. And important people, people of major influence.”

I wonder if they could splice together a video of Obama backing Netanyahu just like Obama's people made a video claiming Bibi was backing Hussein.
