Journalists Hid Identity Of Key Source As They Spread Their Khashoggi Disappearance Narrative

A story broke last week that an Arabic journalist named Jamal Khashoggi who was working for the Washington Post had disappeared and was presumed dead. The official story is that Khashoggi was last seen entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, Turkey, on the afternoon of October 2.

Immediately (and suspiciously) media stories that appeared to be coordinated appeared, pointing the finger of blame for Khashoggi’s disappearance at Saudi Arabia, in general, and at the country’s Crown Prince, Mohammad Bin Salman, in particular. It was alleged by anonymous sources for several days that Khashoggi had been abducted and then killed at the express order of Bin Salman, for being a troublesome journalist who was causing problems for the Saudi royal family with the stories he was pursuing. Detailed stories relating how the abduction/killing supposedly happened filled the news media.

Arkancide?

Hellary and her demonrats will do anything to take down Trump and America. They’d do anything. Anything. Including getting us to rush headlong into a war.

No, we don’t need to bother with this guy. He isn’t a US citizen, he’s muslim brotherhood and who knows what dots lead to Hellary.

Nobody hacked the watch. Khashoggi left his cellphone with his wife, in case something happened, and had his watch recording audio to the cloud during the time he was in the Consulate.

Dead Journalist should be treated the same as the murder of any other American - no better - no worse.

This is NOT our problem beyond that. Khashoggi's death by crazies should be treated the SAME as the death of ANY American by overseas nuts.

Yes. WE CARE.

But NO...

WE ARE NOT GOING TO WAR OVER HIS DEATH.

Spikey Isikoff and Klaidman were prominent DNC assets during the impeachment wars of 1998-99.

Klaidman was enough of a Democrat tool that I did a write-up on him at the time.

We all know Spikey's claim to fame...

It was deleted with most of the other threads from back then in the aftermath of the LATimes-WaPo settlement.

I would give a brief bio of their journalism career and list FR articles written by them, with links, to highlight their bias.

We have Twitter & LinkedIn for that, now.   winking face

... The fate of Khashoggi is the latest sign of what’s really happening inside Saudi Arabia. For how much longer will our leaders look the other way?”

Let them deal with it, let's not attempt, nor allow ourselves to be persuaded to enter into family squabbles.

The more I think about it, how does that Apple Watch work? Is it possible for the watch to upload anything to the cloud without being connected by Bluetooth to the IPhone?

Frankly I did not know that the Apple Watch had a microphone in it, but how does it all work?

Does it have to linked to the IPhone to work, or can it work on it’s own? Because if it was able to record and upload to the cloud, then how does that work?

With all the foofala about him I just assumed he was an American citizen...

Is he the only person IN THE WORLD this year who was murdered in a cruel way? Is that why this is a big deal?
