https://www.npr.org/2021/02/25/97121...amal-khashoggiPresident Biden has already made clear that he plans to take a more critical position toward Saudi Arabia, which has had close ties with many U.S. presidents, including former President Donald Trump.
Trump took his first presidential trip abroad to Saudi Arabia in 2017, describing the kingdom as a regional leader and praising it for the billions of dollars the Saudis spend on U.S. weapons.
During last year's presidential campaign, Biden called Saudi Arabia a "pariah" and was critical of its human rights record and its intervention in Yemen's civil war, which has contributed to one of the world's worst humanitarian crises.
"The president's intention, as is the intention of this government, is to recalibrate our engagement with Saudi Arabia," White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday.
Biden said he has read the intelligence report produced by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which oversees all 18 of the U.S. intelligence agencies.
According to the White House, Biden spoke by phone Thursday with King Salman. They discussed a range of issues, and Biden "affirmed the importance the United States places on universal human rights and the rule of law."
Damn it feels good to have an alpha back in the White House.

I wonder why Trump blocked the report from being released

Just for the record, Chinese genocide and slave labor is an acceptable difference of culture but this would require military intervention on human rights ground?

We will look back on the saudi regime as being one of the worst in modern history. Despicable.
One of the few regimes that actually deserve and invasion by the world powers but sadly will never get one.

I thought release of classified information was a danger to our National Security?
Oh wait, that's only when the classified information involves the FBI spying on US citizens for political purposes.I'm not DrewDarden

Under the Obama/Biden administration, Saudi not only went unchecked but was also aided in destroying large parts of the Middle East. Hundreds of thousands were murdered and enslaved under their leadership, even women and children, all in an attempt to stop the so called "Shia expansion" which would have damaged the Saudi's strength in the region. But I'm sure Biden cares deeply about some random journalist.

You mean taking out a terrorist on the battlefield of a war that was started long before he entered the White House? Why would that come close to starting WWIII??Originally Posted by Kane_89
