The method of Thomas FriedmanHe has a sneaky method. He
takes a stand and whenever events unfold in a way that is contrary to his
assessment or prediction, he writes as if the readers don't remember him take
him a contrary stand earlier. He did that in Iraq in 2003: he vocally supported
the war, and when US predictions all collapsed, he became a critic of the war
and acted like he had not supported the war. The same now with Arab uprisings:
he first assured Israel that it had nothing to worry about, that Arab uprisings
are not about foreign policy. Now this: "Israel is facing the biggest erosion of its strategic
environment since its founding."
