feels our pain // (Scott Johnson).
The New York Times has no admirers for Benjamin Netanyahu, the former and future Israeli Prime Minister. This is old news. The Times’s antipathy towards Netanyahu is a mixture of malice and stupidity. But malice certainly accounts most of it. Netanyahu is a patriotic, pro-freedom conservative. The Times hates Netanyahu with the same hatred it has for prominent conservatives in America with similar views.
The Times is now on Netanyahu’s side as he attempts to form a new government. The Times applies its old malice in new circumstances, but the tune remains the same. Netanyahu’s response is for those of us who are willing to reciprocate the Times’s malice.
The NYT continues to delegitimize America’s only true democracy in the Middle East. I will ignore their ill-founded advice, and instead, focus on building a stronger, more prosperous country.

Here’s a 2007 photo tour host Fern Oppenheim captured of our group with Netanyahu at his Tel Aviv office. Everywhere Fern knocked in Israel the door was open. The left shows Andrew Breitbart, Larry Solov. Larry dated Breitbart News’ conception to our trip in , this 2015 column.
