In the case of the Saudis, we simply don’t have the luxury of completely isolating one of the world’s largest oil producers. If the United States won’t support the Saudis, Russia and China will — and they will care far less about human rights than we do. https://t.co/CkD7LGxwgi — PolitiTweet.org

It is literally insane that, as natural gas prices skyrocket, Germany is still planning to shut its last three nuclear power plants. 🤯 https://t.co/5z76EnJmM8 — PolitiTweet.org

This is one of the rare times I disagree with Garry. Biden did have goals (eg furthering recognition of Israel, trying to increase oil production, containing Iran). What he achieved remains to be seen but this wasn’t just a photo op like Trump and Kim Jong Un at DMZ. — PolitiTweet.org

I love WWII analogies as much as the next pundit but I would say the differences in this case are so vast that you really can't compare them at all. — PolitiTweet.org

@MaxBoot True. But both entail appeasement and questionable pragmatism.

Trump went, as usual, over the top: It was nauseating to hear him say he was in love with the odious Kim Jong Un. But there is nothing wrong in principle with meeting dictators. — PolitiTweet.org

I would suggest--and I'm just spitballing here--that there is a pretty vast difference between Adolf Hitler and MBS (who is working closely with Israel). — PolitiTweet.org

@MaxBoot You are not alone in your thinking, Max. It's statesmanlike thinking! Neville felt similarly.

Harry Truman shook hands with Joseph Stalin, Richard Nixon with Mao Zedong — and both of those dictators had far more blood on their hands than Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Biden cannot afford to go to the extreme of cynically, uncritically embracing MBS, as Trump and Jared Kushner did. But nor can he simply cut off the Saudis, as human rights campaigners demand. https://t.co/CkD7LGxwgi — PolitiTweet.org

Max Boot 🇺🇦🇺🇸 @MaxBoot

Sometimes there simply isn’t a perfect policy, and the best a president can do is pursue the least-bad approach. That’s what Biden is doing with the Saudis, and, while it might be morally satisfying to castigate him, I’m inclined to cut him some slack. https://t.co/CkD7LGxwgi — PolitiTweet.org

Biden is making clear that the United States values its alliance with Saudi Arabia but would like it to curb human rights abuses. That is not very satisfying or sexy, but I don’t have a better alternative. I’m not sure anyone does. https://t.co/CkD7LGxwgi — PolitiTweet.org

MBS is a more ambivalent figure than the cartoon villain that he is so often made out to be in media coverage. It’s true that he is cruel and repressive. But, while illiberal politically, he is liberalizing Saudi society. His reforms are revolutionary. https://t.co/CkD7LGxwgi — PolitiTweet.org

It was the fist bump that sent shock waves around the world. I, too, recoiled at first from that distasteful image. But then I recalled that MBS is hardly the first, or even the worst, despot that US presidents have greeted in similar ways. https://t.co/CkD7LGxwgi — PolitiTweet.org

Columnists can hurl thunderbolts of outrage from on high, but moral purity is a luxury that no leader of a great nation can afford. Every president has to pursue both America’s ideals and its interests – and often they are at odds. https://t.co/CkD7LGxwgi — PolitiTweet.org
