Saudi Arabia is a major player in what happens in the Middle East and has been a longtime partner with the United States.
The Free Beacon’s Adam Kredo appeared on The Dana Show, where he discussed President Obama’s visit to Saudi Arabia and King Salman’s ties to anti-Semitic radical Muslim clerics.
President Obama’s visit to pay respects to the past king as well as meet with the new king show that the president wants to continue relations with the country.
Kredo also said he believes there might not be a difference between the new king and the old king in regard to human rights. The first beheading under King Salman has happened this week as well as the continuing of the lashes against the Saudi blogger who set up a forum to create a discussion about the social laws.
The president did not make an issue out of the lack of human rights during his visit to the country.
