U.S. President Joe Biden’s attempt to cobble together some kind of Israeli-Saudi normalization deal before the 2024 American election is, it seems to me, doomed to fail. It feels like Joe has been led astray by Tom Friedman at the New York Times.

Unfortunately, that Friedman has the U.S. president’s ear (and the trust of a great many American Jews) is not doing us much good. That he is working hard to depose the democratically elected government of the Jewish state is beyond the pale.
