Obama administration hails Bahraini dictatorship

This should be a classic passage in the foreign policy of Obama:  "Foreign Minister Shaikh Khalid bin Ahmed bin Mohammed Al Khalifa and Justice, Islamic Affairs and Endowments Minister Shaikh Khalid bin Ali Al Khalifa met at the Foreign Ministry today US Deputy secretary of State James Steinberg, US Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs Jeffrey Feltman and the accompanying delegation.   Both sides reviewed bilateral friendly relations of cooperation and ways of boosting them at all levels. They also discussed regional and international issues of mutual concern.  Mr. Steinberg underlined the US keenness on Bahrain’s security and stability pointing out the importance of further promoting bilateral partnership.   He also hailed the royal reform project which put Bahrain on the path of progress and prosperity."
