NYT's Tom Friedman drops all pretense

[Mediocrates]

The New York Times windbag Tom Friedman has finally dropped all pretense that he's anything but an antisemitic apologist for extermination.

In Egypt, every day it becomes clearer that the Army has used the Tahrir uprising to get rid of its main long-term rival for succession — President Hosni Mubarak’s more reform-minded son, Gamal. Now, having gotten rid of both father and son, the Army is showing its real hand by prosecuting American, European and Egyptian democracy workers for allegedly working with “foreign agents” — the C.I.A., Israel and the Jewish lobby— to destabilize Egypt. This is a patently fraudulent charge, but one meant to undermine the democrats demanding that the Army step aside.

Adopting the language of the far left/right antisemites who tell us "Jews" run the government.

Tom's use of the word allegedly sounds to me like he is repeating the charges made by the Egyptian Army, not that he actually believes the charges.
