Ynetnews reports:  An aide to Hillary Clinton reported in 2010 that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had spoken disrespectfully of the then-US secretary of state in a closed door meeting, according to an e-mail released on Monday.

Netanyahu allegedly said that “if we can’t sleep, hillary is not going to sleep” while asking his audience to pressure the US to be more aggressive towards Iran.

Clinton confidant and journalist Sid Blumenthal sent the e-mail on March 28, 2010 with the subject line “RE: Netanyahu”.

Blumenthal has a long history of working with the Clintons, having worked as a paid advisor to Bill Clinton during his presidency and frequently advising Hillary Clinton during her tenure as secretary of state, despite not working at the State Department.
