why Biden shouldn't meet with Herzog. First off Herzog is a figurehead, with little real power. But he is the head of state and could exert pressure on Bibi behind the scenes, even without any real power. Second, US presidents have met with hostile foreign leaders, like the premiers of Russia during the height of the cold war, meeting with various leaders of China over the years, from Mao, thru Xi. Presidents have met with presidents, and kings of countries in the middle east, all of whom were dictators, and were killing their own people.
