Senior columnist Thomas Friedman calls on Israelis to replace Netanyahu, attacks Trump, and expresses support for Eisenkot. He warns of a crisis in relations with the US following a shift in American public opinion.

Senior columnist Thomas Friedman calls on Israelis to follow the Americans' lead and replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, warning of a permanent crisis in relations with the United States. In a scathing column, he attacks President Donald Trump, expresses support for Gadi Eisenkot, and delivers a pointed message to Israel. According to Friedman, Netanyahu's continued rule will lead to a crisis with Israel's most important ally. He describes the US election results as 'a revolt against the unfairness, against the immunity, and against the corruption of President Trump.' Additionally, he accuses Trump of 'selling out Israel' in a last-minute attempt to pander to voters by promising to halt security aid. The columnist warns of a dramatic shift in American public opinion and states that 'the America you knew is gone.' He concludes with a message: 'We are no longer Trump's America. Americans chose to rediscover our better angels over self-destruction. I hope you will do the same.'
