Is this what you thought Obama’s self-described “Smart Diplomacy”™ would look like?

The Daily Beast's Tunku Varadarajan:

So one wonders—as Putin embraces Chavez and Karzai plays host to Ahmadinejad; as Russia asserts the right to repudiate any nuclear-arms reduction treaty and China gives us the bird on the yuan; as the alliance with India languishes and the one with Britain experiences unprecedented atrophy; as Israel expresses acrid disagreement with us and Japan seeks to rip pages out of its postwar rulebook—what all the pragmatism has really, truly accomplished…

…other than give our delighted adversaries a free pass and our friends a very rude wakeup call.

Well, at least Iran has given up its nuclear weapons pro ... oh? ... never mind.
