Friedman: Israel Netanyahu is not a friend of America

New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman released a note in the media close to the Democrats on the eve of US Preside Donald Trump’s visit to West Asia.

“Mr. Preside, the fact that you are meeting with Saudi leaders, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar – and that you have no plans to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel – show me that you are not a vital truth in the United States:”

Friedman has emphasized Trump: Netanyahu is not our friend. However, he thought he could turn you io his naughty. That is why I have been influenced by how you have shown him to have no value to you through your independe negotiations with Hamas, Iran and the Yemenis. This has clearly frightened him.

“I have no doubt that in general, the Israeli people coinue to consider themselves to be the consta allies of the American people, but on the corary, this is not Israeli ally,” the Israeli Extraordinary Governme, “he said. Because it is the first governme in Israel’s history, with no priority of peace with more Arab neighbors and the benefits that will have more security and coexistence. Its priority is to join the West Bank, the dismissal of Gaza Palestinians and the re -establishme of Israeli settlemes. The notion that Israel has a governme that is no longer behaved as a US ally and should not be considered such, for Israeli friends in Washington is a shocking and bitter belief that they must accept.

Incorporation of the West Bank instead of US Security Architecture

The New York Times columnist wrote, and that Netanyahu’s cabinet “weakens our ierests in line with its extremist agenda”, the fact that you will not allow Netanyahu, like other US presides, is an honor. It is also critical to defending US security architecture that your predecessors have made in the region. The structure of the curre US, Arab and Israeli alliance was created by Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger after the October war to drive Russia out and turn America io a domina global power in the region, which has been in our geopolitical and economic ierests since then. Nixon-Keygear diplomacy formed separation agreemes between Israel, Syria and Egypt. These agreemes set up the foundations of the Camp David Peace Treaty. Camp David provided the basis for Oslo peace agreemes. The result was the region that was dominated by the US, its Arab allies and Israel. But the whole structure was largely depende on the US -Israel commitme to a kind of two -state solution – a commitme that you, in your first presidency for a Palestinian state in Gaza and the West Bank along with Israel – would recognize and recognize Israel if the Palestinians agreed.

However, Netanyahu’s governme, however, was given a priority when it came to power late in the year before the October 1 attack, instead of US security -iercourse for the region, he said. For almost a year, the Biden governme begged Netanyahu to do a job for the United States and for Israel: one day with a reformed authority to begin discussing the Palestinian Authority on two -state solutions – in exchange for Saudi Arabia to normalize its relations with Israel. This then paved the way for the approval of a US -Saudi security treaty in Congress to balance Iran and block China. Netanyahu refused to do so, because Jewish superiority in his cabinet said that if he did, he would overthrow his governme, and given that Netanyahu is being tried on numerous charges of corruption, he could not avoid prime minister’s immunity to prolong his trial. Therefore, Netanyahu considered his personal ierests preceded by Israel and the United States.

According to Friedman, “the normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia could open the whole Islamic world to Israeli tourists, investors and innovators, reduce tensions between Jews and Muslims around the world, and bring US ierests in the Middle East to Nixon and Kissinger for a decade.”

“After two years of deceiving Netanyahu, both the Americans and the Saudis have decided to stop Israel’s participation in the deal, which is a real loss to Israelis and Jews,” he wrote. Reuters reported on Thursday that “the United States no longer wa Saudi Arabia to normalize relations with Israel as a condition for progress in civilian nuclear cooperation negotiations” and that things may be worse.

Vietnam in the Mediterranean

Friedman has noted to Trump: Netanyahu is preparing to re -attack Gaza with a plan to raise the Palestinian population in a small corner with the Mediterranean Sea on one side and the Egyptian border on the other, while moving the actual accession at the West Bank. By doing so, charges of more war crimes against Israel (and especially against the new chief of staff of its army, Ayal Zemir), BBC expects your governme to protect him. I have no sympathy with Hamas, but Netanyahu’s plan to re -attack Gaza is not a moderate alternative to Hamas, led by the Palestinian Authority. The plan is for Israel’s permane military occupation, whose purpose is to pressure all Palestinians to leave. This is a copy for a permane uprising, Vietnamese in the Mediterranean. “We occupy Gaza to stay,” said Smutrich, the Israeli extremist right -wing minister, at a conference on May 5, without giving it. There will be no longer ery or exit. ” The local population will be compressed in less than a quarter of the Gaza Strip.

“Since the military will try to minimize casualties, analysts expect to use a special offensive force that will lead to widespread damage to civilian infrastructure,” said the article quoted Amos Harrel as saying. “The displaceme of the population to the areas of humanitarian camps, along with the consta shortage of food and medicine, can lead to more civilian deaths … More Israeli leaders and officers may face personal legal action against themselves.”

Friedman also wrote: In fact, if this strategy is implemeed, it may not only create more war crimes against Israel, but will inevitably threaten Jordan and Egypt’s stability. These two pillars of the American Middle East structure both fear that Netanyahu iends to push the Palestinians from Gaza and the West Bank to their couries, which will certainly foster instability that will spread to their borders even if the Palestinians themselves do not. This hurts us in another way. As Hans Wexel, a senior political adviser to the US Ceral Command, told me: “The more disappoiing the Palestinian ideals, the less readiness in the region to expand the US-Israeli security iegration; “The reasoning that could bring long -term benefits to Iran and China – without the need for military resources almost similar to the United States in the region to preserve it.”

The governme has been rejected

Friedman wrote: In the case of the Middle East, Mr. Preside, you have good independe instincts. Follow them. Otherwise you have to prepare yourself for this immine fact: Your Jewish grandchildren will be the first generation of Jewish children to grow up in a world in which the Jewish state is a disadvaaged state.

The New York Times columnist wrote at the end: “I draw your atteion to words from the 7th May Haaretz editorial that wrote:” On Tuesday, the Israeli Air Force killed two children between the ages of 5 and 5. The Israeli military said it was aimed at the “Hamas Command and Corol Ceer” and “measures have been taken to reduce the risk of harm to non -related civilians.” We can coinue to ignore the number of Palestinians killed in the Gaza Strip, more than 5, including about 2 children; To question the validity of the figures, to use all the mechanisms of repression, denial, indifference, distance, normalization and justification. None of these will change the bitter reality; Israel killed them. Our hands did. We should not close our eyes. We have to wake up and shout loudly: Stop the war. “
