This is TIME’s international editor, not to be confused with the dipshit managing editor who compared Salafists with the Tea Party.

TIME Magazine’s international editor, Jim Fredrick, appeared on MSNBC following Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to the United Nations on Thursday to provide his instant analysis of the speech’s political impact. Fredrick said that President Barack Obama probably would not appreciate his “hand being forced” to either publicly agree or disagree with the red line laid out by Netanyahu in an election year. Furthermore, Fredrick those who have accused Netanyahu of “manipulating” the election system for his political gain were probably correct to do so. […]
“It will be interesting to see, within the next day or two, how the Obama administration responds,” said Fredrick. “It’s been abundantly clear that Obama had not been – has not appreciated having his hand forced by Netanyahu.”
“Netanyahu has absolutely realized that this is an election season,” Fredrick continued. “Has been accused, probably rightly so, of manipulating certain parts of the U.S. election system to what he perceives to be his benefit.”
