Power Line’s Paul Mirengoff debunks the criticism aimed at President Trump over refusing to punish Saudi Arabia for its murder of Jamal Khashoggi. As Mirengoff points out, since World War II ended we’ve made common cause with a variety of autocratic regimes with spotty (or worse) human rights records.
As human rights outrages, none of them come close to FDR allying with the murderous Soviet Union against the equally murderous Hitler. Mirengoff’s analysis is supported by my recollection of post-war foreign policy. I recommend it to you.
