Saudis Decided to Cut Oil Production After Biden Fist-Bump Summit
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman personally ordered a drop in oil production increases after leftist American President Joe Biden met with him in Riyadh this summer, the Wall Street Journal claimed in a report citing anonymous rumors on Tuesday.The meeting between bin Salman, commonly referred to as MBS, and Biden has been colloquially dubbed the “fist-bump summit” after a bizarre photo emerged of the two leaders smiling and bumping fists. The photo was taken as a sign that Biden had abandoned his campaign promise to turn Saudi Arabia, a longtime American ally in the Middle East, into a “pariah” state in response to the gruesome 2018 killing of Islamist Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
Most reports citing White House insiders indicated that the objective of the Biden visit was to convince Saudi leaders to increase oil supplies in order to lower prices. Biden himself, in a Washington Post article, denied that this was the case, but did not identify any other concrete objectives. Biden has refused to contemplate the possibility of increasing American oil production to drop prices.
-Lord God, we pray that these rumors are not true. We pray Lord that the truth would come out and that you would expose what the Biden administration and what other governments of the world are trying to do to decrease oil and energy resources hurting the citizens of the world. We pray that the government will no longer be able to lie to the people they serve and that the truth will be revealed in Jesus name amen.
- “‘Do not steal. “‘Do not lie. “‘Do not deceive one another.” (Leviticus 19:11)
