Rather Than Pump More Oil At Home, Biden Caves To The Saudis

saudi pm bin salmanNo American president has ever condemned Saudi Arabia more harshly and consistently than President Joe Biden has.

In a 2020 presidential debate, a moderator noted, “The CIA has concluded that the leader of Saudi Arabia directed the murder of US-based journalist, Jamal Khashoggi,” and asked Biden if he would punish senior Saudi leaders: “Yes,” said Biden, without hesitation. [emphasis, links added]


“We are going to make them pay the price and make them the pariah that they are.”

And, last month, in response to Saudi decision to cut oil production, Biden told CNN, “There’s going to be some consequences for what they’ve done.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
