Thomas Friedman applies his weird analogies to Egypt - Egyptian Protests - Salon.com: "As soon as a mass popular uprising began rocking Egypt, New York Times columnist and Middle East expert Thomas Friedman leaped into action. After spending a couple more days at Davos, he went to Israel, where he spoke to 'a retired Israeli general at a Tel Aviv hotel' and 'a Tel Aviv University Strategist.' Oh, and Palestine Prime Minister Salam Fayyad. All of these people get one fairly generic quote each.
Anyway, people in Israel are shocked (and awed) that Egypt's once-stable regime seems to be on the brink of collapse. No one in Israel saw this coming, and this is a huge deal, for Israel:"
