doug bondo is a senior fellow at the cato institute. he joins us from washington, d. c. thanks for joining us. so how much internal division is there in the white house over the relationship with saudi arabia? do you believe? well, there is a fairly significant split. the president came into office saying that he was going to treat a saudi arabia as a pariah. he flip that around, he clearly was persuaded by members of his staff that it was important to try to work the relationship and that they believed the saudis would be forthcoming on oil . what is happening now, i think, is shifting the power balance within the white house, back towards his initial stance. quite embarrassing for him, especially because it appears that saudi arabia is working with rock. so that is not only human rights issue. it's a security issue. and with that shift, as he say, what practical measures might be taken to express the white house, his displeasure for the most obvious would be for the white house to back away from arm safe. you know, the saudi arabia has been relying on that with its war
