‘Apartheid,’ says Tom Friedman
The important news in Tom Friedman’s latest column is that he uses the word “apartheid.” The New York Times columnist says Netanyahu has destroyed the happy “fiction” that the occupation of the West Bank is temporary, so Israel is “practicing some form of apartheid there.” Netanyahu’s steady destruction of this shared fiction is now posing […]

Tom Friedman normalizes apartheid in the ‘New York Times’
NYT columnist Tom Friedman painted the past year in Israel—the first Netanyahu-free year since 2008—as an icon of democracy, where Israeli Jews and Palestinian citizens of Israel danced together under the blue and white flag, in harmony and happiness. That is a contemptible piece of fiction which erases apartheid, blames Palestinians for their own ongoing […]
Blind to apartheid, Tom Friedman offers Israel as model for U.S. democracy
Tom Friedman really is stupendous. He’s like some impresario at a vaudeville who goes out every night with the same patter for 50 years, and the same lineup of tired stars, the fireeater and the tattooed lady and the little person standing on the horse. Except in Friedman’s case the act isn’t even faintly entertaining. […]
Even Tom Friedman says leaving Iran deal was a mistake — but risk of an Israeli attack grows
This site rarely agrees with New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, but he wrote something the other day that we can endorse enthusiastically. He said the 2018 Trump/Netanyahu decision to leave the Iran nuclear deal “was one of the dumbest, most poorly thought out and counterproductive U.S. national security decisions of the post-Cold War era.” […]

Friedman’s analysis of the Palestinian uprising is silly, offensive — and leaves out key words, ‘Israeli apartheid’
The explosive news from Israel/Palestine gave Thomas Friedman, the New York Times foreign affairs columnist who portrays himself as a Middle East expert, a chance to start explaining why Palestinian resistance and Israeli repression have reached the highest level in years. In his column yesterday, he failed. He nowhere wrote the words “Israel apartheid,” or […]
NYT’s Friedman: ‘God Bless’ Liz Cheney, Mitt Romney ‘Standing Up for Our Democracy’
New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman said Monday night on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” that Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) are “standing up for our democracy” by opposing the notion former President Donald Trump didn’t lose the 2020 presidential election. Friedman said, “When people ask me how I feel, I give an answer […]
Tom Friedman’s foundation supports pro-Israel causes, including Islamophobic MEMRI (but he won’t tell you that)
It’s not news to anyone who follows the Israel/Palestine issue that the top foreign policy columnist at the New York Times takes a side. “Israel had me at hello,” Tom Friedman said in September 2019 at a New York temple. He said he’s worried that the next generation of Times columnists won’t be as reflexively […]
Thomas Friedman ignores ‘apartheid’ label, says Israel is ‘idealistic’ just like the U.S.
Thomas Friedman just wrote a column about Israel for The New York Times that says the Palestinian issue doesn’t matter. “[T]he Arab-Israel conflict for Israel… has largely disappeared,” he says. Israel is in the same boat as the U.S., building a diverse “idealistic” country in the face of rightwing trends. This approach by the leading […]
Capitol riot provides shock to Netanyahu, Friedman… and American exceptionalism
The riot at the Capitol January 6 and the utter collapse of the Trump administration has of course embarrassed the United States around the world, and it is putting Israel supporters in an awkward position. They relied on Trump to deliver one gift after another to Israel. They are not sure quite how to pick […]

Mainstream U.S. media coverage of assassination in Iran is dishonest — with Friedman in the lead
U.S. mainstream media coverage of Israel’s dangerous assassination of the Iranian nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh continues to be garbled and misleading, though there is at least one bright spot. And the assassination caused New York Times foreign affairs columnist Thomas Friedman to end his year-long near silence on the Mideast — with an embarrassment that […]
Tom Friedman has advice for Palestinians: Embrace Zionism
One of the advantages of being a liberal Zionist is that you never have to take responsibility for what Zionism does. You can blame Palestinians for their own demise, maintain a sense of righteousness while people die, and defend Israel no matter what it does. And you can state emphatically that you know what Palestinians […]
