Yglesias has talked about the first part of this, so let’s concentrate on the second bit:

Netanyahu appears to be suffering from confusion and paranoia. He is convinced that the media are after him, that his aides are leaking information against him and that the American administration wants him out of office. Two months after his visit to Washington, he is still finding it difficult to communication normally with the White House. To appreciate the depth of his paranoia, it is enough to hear how he refers to Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod, Obama’s senior aides: as “self-hating Jews.”

“He thought that his speech at Bar-Ilan would become mandatory reading at schools in the United States, and when he realized that Obama gave no such order, he went back to being frustrated,” one of his associates said.

Okay… so, Bibi has lived in the United States before. He went to high school, college, and graduate school in the US. Is there any plausible reason to believe that these experiences may have led him to believe that the President of the United States regularly orders schools to enforce the reading of speeches by foreign heads of state? Or that the President even has the authority to do so? Moreover, the speech was delivered on June 14, at which point almost all schools in the United States are out. Is this a joke, or is Bibi just going crazy?
