US senator says Saudi crown prince must be 'dealt with' over Khashoggi murder
Yahoo "news" ^ | January 19, 2019 | AFP

A key US senator on Saturday said the Saudi crown prince was responsible for Jamal Khashoggi's murder and must be "dealt with", as he threatened new sanctions.

Republican Lindsey Graham, an influential ally of President Donald Trump, has previously said that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was complicit in the grisly killing of Washington Post contributor Khashoggi in October.

"I have concluded that the relationship between Saudi Arabia and the United States cannot move forward until MBS has been dealt with," Graham said, using the initials for the crown prince.

Graham also threatened new sanctions against those suspected of involvement in the murder during a press conference in Ankara.

The Saudis have engaged on an investigation into the actual ‘hit-team’ and it appears like that those participants will end up in serious jeopardy in the end. However, if you execute the ‘hit-team’....everyone hanging around the Crown Prince will step back and realize that anything he drags you into....will just be your death-sentence, then the whole game collapses pretty quickly.

Kashoggi was a MB supporter, trying to overthrow the kingdom

Why is Graham sticking his nose into this?

I doubt that he'd make it to the second cull, during the primaries.

Linda and her puppet master McStooge have done the dirty with Islamic terrorists. They never met an Arab Spring they didn’t like.

Gosh, it wouldn't have anything to do with the *cash*, by any chance? :^) Given his apparent all-over-the-road approach to the border/amnesty, the Syria pullout, etc, I suspect he's helping President Trump, by defining a "middle ground" type of intraparty dissent, an alternative to Willard and the McCain RINOs who haven't retired yet. Having dissent in the Pubbie Party is not unusual (since the other party doesn't tolerate it, and is the party of the single party state), and helps pull M.O.R. voters.

Also, I was serious, Graham will run for President in 2024, and unlike Kasich and Hogan won't challenge our President during the 2020.

Saudi Arabia already drained their swamp.

MBS is their equivalent of our President DJT.
MBS is one of the few good guys over there, while Kashoggi and (Clinton-funding) Prince Alwaleed were Muslim Brotherhood.

For Graham to still be attacking MBS, and supporting Ankara of all places (basically our enemy), means that Graham is still cabal-controlled.

No way should that slippery snake(Graham) get anywhere near the GOP nomination!

Kashoggi wasn’t murdered. Dead terrorists were always legitimate, hard military targets.

Don’t join the Muslim Brotherhood.

Hey Lindsey, just shut the f up already. Kashoggi was a Bin Laden supporter, working for the Trump hating Washington Post who needed to be taken out. I am not losing any sleep over his demise. Au contraire.
Why is Graham not whining over the close to a hundred journalists that have been .murdered in Mexico in the last few years? And why should we lose hundreds of billions of dollars worth of military purchases from Saudi Arabia over some America hating POS who is not a citizen of this country?

The Muslim Brotherhood is the target of MBS.

Ilhan Omar is Muslim Brotherhood.

Ilhan Omar suggested publically a couple days ago that Trump is blackmailing Lindsey Graham over a “major secret.”

It’s an open secret in DC that Graham is gay. The left always accuses the right of things the left does.

Ilhan Omar just let Lindsey Graham know that The Muslim Brotherhood will expose him if he doesn’t try to remove MBS.

Nah. Given the protean definition of neocon, I was one up until the end of the war in Iraq, when I realized the pinnacle of life in one culture isn’t necessarily the same in another culture. Freedom isn’t for everybody. That defused any notion of “exporting democracy,” rendering me ex-neocon.

I never considered Lindsey a friend of Trump, but McCain and Graham supported the “Arab Spring” Saudi wars in Libya and Syria.

What’s going on is my question?

There’s a “secret case” related to Robert Mueller with a foreign financial entity linked to a foreign government paying a 50-thousand dollar a day fine for contempt of court.

Its been appealed up to the Supreme Court and they are considering it.

Two possibilities of foreign links. The always popular Russian link but also a Gulf Arab-Saudi link.

And they tell you Mueller is all about Russia? NOT.....
