NYT needs to end silence on Hashemite Kingdom of Palestine

By David Singer - posted Tuesday, 6 December 2022

Yet Friedman has not written one word about Shihabi's proposal in the six months since its publication despite my personal request to him to do so. Sour grapes perhaps?

However why has the NYT not informed its readers of this Saudi Plan that also offers Israel sole sovereignty in Jerusalem and in part of Judea and Samaria (West Bank)? If that's not front page news, what is?

Could a well-resourced NYT investigative journalist with Saudi contacts find out whether a plan similar to Shihabi's is in MBS's desk or ask MBS directly whether he endorses Shihabi's plan?

Thomas Friedman and Kathleen Kingsbury – some answers and an op-ed please.
