I've been out of the country for awhile and coming back to American media's view of the world has been a rude shock to reason and logic. I wonder how many foreign policy leaders like Friedman have lived or experienced meaningfully a world outside the self-created bubble from which they pontificate murderous nonsense?
Anyhow, point is, I'm glad someone like you is writing this stuff. Reading this was like water for someone thirsty for sanity in her own country's mediascape. Please continue to write, and figure out a way to get into mainstream publications. There's no reason why your words should be limited to what's widely (ill-) considered a left-leaning magazine.
