We no longer have a Netanyahu problem. We have an Israel problem.
Two weeks ago, the United States had a Benjamin Netanyahu problem. The Israeli prime minister seemed to have gone rogue. His ambassador to Washington had secretly negotiated with Republicans to have Netanyahu address a joint session of Congress.

Then he went home and used video of their applause in an ad promoting his re-election.
