Consistently inconsistent: The US’ credibility hangs in the balance
==========
The US has a history of reversing its foreign policy decisions, which has led to inconsistency in its credibility. Despite vocalizing concerns about human rights and democratic norms, the US remains persistent in pursuing deeper ties with Bangladesh on economic and strategic fronts. However, its actions in supporting Israel while preaching about human rights and democracy have eroded its credibility and risk increased isolation on the world stage. The US' foreign policy remains inconsistent in pushing for democratic norms but consistent in prioritizing strategic interests. To reverse the damage, the US must draw practical red lines with Israel and act in clear, concrete, and consistent terms.
