Washington, DC – Congressman Steve Rothman (D-NJ) released the following statement on Thomas Friedman’s column where he wrote that the “standing ovation [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu] got in Congress this year was not for his politics. That ovation was bought and paid for by the Israel lobby” in the New York Times this morning:

Thomas Friedman’s defamation against the vast majority of Americans who support the Jewish State of Israel, in his New York Times opinion piece today, is scurrilous, destructive and harmful to Israel and her advocates in the US. Mr. Friedman is not only wrong, but he’s aiding and abetting a dangerous narrative about the US-Israel relationship and its American supporters.

"Uncle" Tom Friedman has done it again in the New York Times; he has proven that you can be a useful idiot and a Jewish anti-Semite all in one. Evidently, the means justify the ends, Friedman, who has always used his Jewish identity to infer that he is "one of us", has crossed the red lines and joined the ranks of Israel's enemies. In his latest editorial column, he has stated that only by undermining the special relationship between Israel and the United States can the Jewish lobby be denied their control of Congress - which institution has been, and I quote, “bought and paid for by the Israeli lobby.” Friedman doesn't stop there, he makes sure to suggest that the leading Republican candidates are in the pockets of the Jewish lobby and therefore forced "to grovel for Jewish votes — by outloving Israel".

According to Friedman, anybody who supports Israel must be on the nefarious Jewish lobby’s payroll. Otherwise, how could they dare? Maybe Friedman should consider the possibility that the ovation was the result of America’s elected officials – in tune with the feelings of their constituents – seeing in Israel a plucky little country that shares their own basic values and is trying to survive in an awfully bad neighborhood. Maybe Friedman should consider that the ovation was the result of politicians understanding that this conflict is not about one settlement, or one Jerusalem neighborhood, but rather over the Jewish people’s right to a homeland.

Among Friedman's most disturbing claims is that the standing ovation for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Congress last May was “bought and paid for by the Israel lobby.” Not only is the statement's anti-Semitic allusion grossly offensive, but it is false. The suggestion that the American people, and therefore their elected representatives, do not naturally support Israel is plainly wrong; a 2011 Gallup poll showed that American support for Israel was on the rise, at a near record high of 63%, and that Americans were nearly four times as likely to side with the Israelis as with the Palestinians. The statement about being “bought and paid for by the Israel lobby” echoes the widely criticized book by Professors Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer, entitled The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy (Farrar & Straus, Sept. 2007). The authors accuse the “Israel lobby” of distorting US foreign policy to serve Israel's aims at the expense of U.S. interests. Fraught with shoddy scholarship, the book updates the classic slander that Jews are a fifth column with, at best, dual loyalties and, at worst, a secret unpatriotic agenda. Friedman's Op-Ed clearly suggests the same.
