He was at a foreign embassy while on the business of his American employer. That makes it the business of the US, which will have words with the country whose embassy he was in. If your hypothetical Apple employee were killed while visiting an embassy, or by a foreign spy, in order to steal industrial secrets from Apple, or prevent Apple from rolling out the newest I-Phone, then it was an assault on the interests of a US corporate citizen by a foreign country. Same thing.

If he was just killed in a barroom brawl, unconnected to his duties at Apple, then it is no longer America’s business.

No, he was at the embassy to get a writ of divorce from his Saudi wife so he could marry his current concubine.

Well, no. It does not.

If he was just killed in a barroom brawl, unconnected to his duties at Apple, then it is no longer America’s business.

And that is partly why it is none of America's business. His being at the Saudi embassy had nothing to do with his job. It had to do with his genitals.

So why again are people having a hissy over this?

Not our citizen.

Not our country.

Not doing business for his employer.

And an avowed enemy of the US.

And why is it that I know these things why I could not give a flip about the guy and people who are wailing over him don't?

You are being emotionally manipulated and I am appealing to you to stop emoting and return to logic and reason.
