Why was Obama’s original decision — to send Joe Biden to the Saudi King’s funeral because his own trip to India was too important to cut short — changed?

Was Obama threatened in some way? Whatever the reason, India’s 1.2 billion people, most of them Hindus, many of whom are Hindu nationalists who do not like Muslims, will be insulted by Obama’s choice of honoring a dead Muslim king instead of their own democratically elected living Hindu prime minister with whom Obama was understood to have scheduled important meetings.

What about the security concerns?

No worries mate! The Saudis are building high tech fences to keep infiltrators and those crossing into the country illegally out. Unlike our leaders who actively invite infiltrators and illegal border crossers in and tell us a fence is not needed.
