All Islamists are dangerous.

And now there’s one fewer. Billions to go.

Was Khashoggi part of a coup to take out bin Salman?

a phone call with President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and national security adviser John Bolton, according to people familiar with the discussion.

Golly! I hope they can pin down who the leaker is! Unless, of course, this is just Fake News.

[Responsibility2nd]

I really don’t get the panty twisting here.

One muzzie dies at the hand of other muzzies. Happens every day.

So why is this being dragged on and on and on?

Cause it happened to a Compost gerbalist. And so they will piss and moan about it for weeks and weeks.

Who cares? Move on.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Trump is making headway with Saudi Arabia. Can’t have that. Have to manufacture a scandal to scuttle it.

[Responsibility2nd]

That’s a good question. The media can conspire to steal elections and even be outright involved in a soft coup against our current President.

They get away with that.

Yet some Khashoggi tries to interfere with the House of Saud?

/insert head chop

[right way right]

Leaker or fake news.
We don’t know.
Intentional leak?
Perhaps, if it backs the MSM away from reporting on the Muslim invasion of our state department etc.
Obamas doing.
Motivations , Motivations.
Speculation, speculation, our fascination.
Islam does not belong here.

Someone’s trying to gin up a game of lets-you-and-him-fight.

Here’s how upset I am over any aspect of this ‘story’:

[Georgia Girl 2]

Hey nobody’s crying for the guy I just don’t get why the Saudis have to turn a simple assassination into a Quentin Tarantino movie.

[Reily]

Bingo!

Give that man a bowl of Humus & pita bread!

[Georgia Girl 2]

You would think by now they would have learned what overkill means.

[VietVet876]

I have to assume that the deceased had tipped the Turks off as to his visit and they caught the Saudis in the act. No way he would have set foot in SA. Kashoggi was paranoid but just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean somebody’s not out to get you. At least they didn’t do it here.

[Grimmy]

Learned and arab don’t go well together. Hench, culture and society stuck at the 7th century.

[Capt. Tom]

Israel, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates have united behind the Trump administration’s efforts to bring pressure on Iran and force through a Middle East peace deal between Israelis and Palestinians.

Muslims don't make peace with Jews; they kill Jews.
Muslims follow the Koran and Hadiths, and the examples set by Muhammad.

If the Muslims want to give up Islam and become more secular , then there Is a chance for peace. - Tom

I certainly could have told the president that, long before the crown prince did.

[Socon-Econ]

If true, the Saudis should have arrested, fairly tried, and, upon his conviction, executed him, which would have avoided all the recent problems with his mysterious disappearance.

[norwaypinesavage]

"Was Khashoggi part of a coup to take out bin Salman?"

Maybe he still is. He could be a suicide martyr for the cause.
