NYT rages against Bibi's pick of Dore Gold for Foreign Minister
americanthinker.com ^ | 5/27/2015 | Leo Rennert

In a lengthy May 26 article, Jodi Rudoren, the New York Times Jerusalem bureau chief, goes apoplectic over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s selection of Dore Gold to run Israel’s foreign ministry.

The headline and the lead paragraph immediately signal to readers that Gold, a former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, is disastrous for Israel’s diplomacy –“Netanyahu Appoints Hawkish Ally to Run foreign policy” – buttressed by Rudoren’s own depiction of Gold as a Bibi confidant who is “hawkish on Iran and the Palestinian issue.”

“Netanyahu Appoints Hawkish Ally to Run foreign policy”

I’m guessing it’s someone who believes in Israels right to exist, which offends liberals no end.

Hi Jodi. With all due respect, the day Bibi cares about what you or your pathetic newspaper thinks of how he runs his country is the day hell freezes over. Any questions?

If the New York Times has a tantrum, and nobody hears it, did the tantrum really happen?

This looks like a move to the left. The outgoing functional head of the Foreign Ministry, Nissim Ben Shitrit, is more ‘hawkish’ than Gold, although Ben Shitrit was not expected to hold the job permanently anyway.

NYT is the leading enemy propaganda outlet in America (outside the White House)

Dore Gold must be outstanding for the New York Times to dislike him this much... Great pick Bibi...

When, clearly, Bibi is dovish on iran and the palis, so this should be bad for Bibi:)
