Thanks, the rest of the article from Buckley is good as well, including this at the end.... Those disputes will go on, and people who wish to retain power will find political niceties on which to base their case for staying in power. But hard arguments have a place. There is this difference between Saudi Arabia and Egypt: the Saudis are a wealthy nation, Egypt is poor. There is another difference, which is that we give the Egyptians every year, and have done so for decades, about three billion dollars. That has been a quiet emollient designed to encourage coexistence following the Israeli-Egyptian wars. Those who accept $3 billion in yearly benefactions will have to put up with an occasional lecture, and Condoleezza Rice put her heart into it, and ours.
