I, an American Muslim, have read a lot about Thomas Friedman. I have read and analyzed all of his work. I feel that he is an intellectual with a very open mind. I feel that he thinks freely and has an amazing ability to comprehend the world. Although he is Jewish, I do not think that his faith dictates his work. I personally feel that he shows sympathy for people from all parts of the world. I do not think it is fair to generalize. Generalizations show a lack of intellectual comprehension. Thomas Friedman, in my humble opinion, is a fine journalist. Ahmed
