From the article: “No one should be denied access to a heritage site, especially one intended to highlight unity and progress, simply for existing as a Jew,” said USCIRF Chair Cooper.
“Saudi Arabia is in the midst of encouraging change under its 2030 Vision.
However, especially in a time of raging antisemitism, being asked to remove my kippah made it impossible for us from USCIRF to continue our visit.

It directly contradicted not only the government’s official narrative of change,
but also genuine signs of greater religious freedom in the Kingdom that we observed firsthand,” said USCIRF Vice Chair Davie."
That was the Saudis backhanding the fuck out of Israel through intermediaries I think it's signalling Israel is losing the superhero cape the United States provides it
Seems so, slowly but surely the giant curtain is being drawn back, that people know.
