Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman shouted at President Joe Biden's national security adviser when he was pressed on the murder of Jamal Khashoggi and said he would not help the U.S. out by pumping more oil.
The staggering decline of U.S.-Saudi relations under the Biden administration was outlined in a Wall Street Journal report
Last September, Biden National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan met with the Saudi Crown prince, who goes by his initials MBS, at a seaside palace.
Sullivan brought up Khashoggi, the Washington Post columnist who was murdered in 2018 in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.
MSB shouted at Sullivan in return and told him that he never wanted to speak of the matter again. And, he added, the U.S. could forget its request that Saudi Arabia increase its oil production, which the administration was pushing for to help bring down gas prices.
Saudia Arabia is irritated with the frosty reception it has received from the United States since Biden took office.
President Biden has refused to speak to MBS and has limited his direct conversations to the ailing and elderly King Salman, MBS' father.
Biden is said to see the king as his direct counterpart. But in Saudi Arabia, the king chooses his successor and Salman, 86, has handed de facto control of the country to MBS, 36.
Relations have been going down hill for months.
In March, it was reported the Saudis declined an administration request for a phone call with Biden, a report the White House denied. After the kingdom declined to talk to Biden, MBS held that March phone call with Putin.

What MBS should have said is he would ‘care’ about Jamal Khashoggi’s death around the same time “the big guy’ Biden gave a damn about the point blank murder of Ashli Babbitt... That’ll shut up Biden and his goons.

Let’s not forget to mention Roseanne Boyland, beaten to death, cremated to avoid an autopsy, then slandrously accused of dying of an overdose.

Sending this OBama/Clinton punk ass mofo over to SA to talk smack about some dead sob that the Saudis whacked years ago. Not a well thought out plan.

Though the self-appointed fiefdoms (”Kings” and other forms of “leaders”) in Arabia and among the “Gulf States” are tyrants politically and still hold religious conversion from Islam a crime, it should still be understood that (a) Khashoggi was only a self-professed “journalist” and won accolades from westerners for exposes of the Saudis but did so as a worker for the Muslim Brotherhood, to try to penetrate the Saudi population with Muslim Brotherhood adherents, and (b) therefor the Saudis, quite rightly, saw Khashoggi as a existential threat. There are tons of journalists all over the Middle East they could have gave after for purely “false journalist” reasons, but they didn’t. They knew Khashoggi was doing the bidding of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Does that “excuse” the murder of Khashoggi? Maybe not, but it makes it understandable.
