did you have an issue with USA trying to influence elections in Israel ?
It's one thing to do it openly, like allow your photo on billboards. Or to travel there at a time convenient to a candidate. Or even to openly promote a candidate. It would be another to run a clandestine CIA campaign producing propaganda designed to sow fear and pit political factions against each other. That's pretty much what the GRU attempted with the U.S. Yes, the U.S. has done things like that. But I wouldn't expect that we'd do that with a geopolitical ally like Israel. You do that to regimes considered hostile to your interests.
I guess the dems consider Netanyahu hostile to their interest then... since the Clinton days
