During the 1999 NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, Friedman wrote the following in The New York Times on April 23, 1999:
"Like it or not, we are at war with the Serbian nation (the Serbs certainly think so), and the stakes have to be very clear: Every week you ravage Kosovo is another decade we will set your country back by pulverizing you.
"You want 1950? We can do 1950. You want 1389? We can do 1389 too."
Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) labeled Freidman's remarks "war-mongering" and "crude race-hatred and war-crime agitation".
Steve Chapman referred to Friedman as "the most fervent supporter of the air war" and ironically asked in the Chicago Tribune: "Why stop at 1389? Why not revive the idea, proposed but never adopted in Vietnam, of bombing the enemy all the way back to the Stone Age?"
Norman Solomon asserted in 2007 that "a tone of sadism could be discerned" in Friedman's article.
