I read his book some time back. I think that on balance Friedman has a pretty thoughtful and clear-eyed perspective

I don't doubt that. I doubt his track record of producing accurate forecasts. He usually stumbles when he leans on a less than strong premise. Garbage in, garbage out. I've been reading Stratfor since 1998, and I can't say I'm impressed. He's in a hard business, I don't begrudge him for trying.
