German Press Reveals Saudi Spook Saga Behind Khashoggi Disappearance
FTA:
Germany’s leading right-of-center daily Die Welt this morning reveals that Jamal Khashoggi was not a journalist, but a high-level operative for the Saudi intelligence service, an intimate of Osama bin Laden, and the nephew of the shadiest of all Arab arms dealers, the infamous Adnan Khashoggi. John Bradley reported last week in the Spectator that Khashoggi, who allegedly met a grisly end in a Saudi consulate in Istanbul, was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamist organization that among other things wants to replace the Saudi monarchy with a modern Islamist totalitarian state.

The Eurasian Organized Crime unit, which was headed by Michael Gaeta at the time, specializes in investigating criminal groups from Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine.
Gaeta, an FBI agent and assistant legal attaché at the U.S. Embassy in Rome, has known the former spy, Christopher Steele—who authored the controversial dossier on then-candidate Donald Trump—since at least 2010, when Steele provided assistance in the FBI’s investigation into the FIFA corruption scandal, over concern that Russia might have been engaging in bribery to host the 2018 World Cup.

Also involved in the FIFA investigation was another familiar name.

U.S. District Judge Raymond Dearie oversaw the FIFA case. Dearie was also a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) judge and would later sign the third and final FISA renewal that allowed the continued surveillance of Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page.

Following Steele’s involvement in the FIFA scandal, he began to provide reports informally to the State Department, Harding reported:
“These were written for a private client but shared widely within the U.S. State Department, and sent up to Secretary of State John Kerry and Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, who was in charge of the U.S. response to Putin’s annexation of Crimea and covert invasion of eastern Ukraine.”

We must take careful note of the whiners in the Republican Party who claim this episode requires U.S. action against our very important NEW ALLY, Mohammad bin Salman of S.A.
I can’t help but equate these infantile reactions to the stupid cries of: “But Dr. Fraud was sooooo convincing.”
This is an internal Saudi issue. The “victim” was neither an American nor an actual journalist, but a leader of the MB and political enemy of the Wahhabi regime.
He is/was NO FRIEND OF AMERICA.
The untrustworthy neocon/Bush tools who are trying to make a big deal out of this, like Marco Rubio, must NEVER BE ALLOWED ANYWHERE NEAR THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION.
They are threatening the greatest movement in decades towards improvement in the Middle East, a movement instigated by President Trump and Mohammad bin Salman.
I can only surmise the many creeps who are attacking MbS have their hands in the old SA cookie jar, the same one that was fattening HRC.
He was a Saudi operative until Salmon came into power.
