“I can’t breathe” were the final words uttered by Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi after he was set upon by a Saudi hit squad at the country’s consulate in Istanbul, a source briefed on the investigation into his killing told CNN on Sunday.

The source, who has read a translated transcript of an audio recording of Khashoggi’s painful last moments, said it was clear that the killing on October 2 was no botched rendition attempt, but the execution of a premeditated plan to murder the journalist.

During the course of the gruesome scene, the source describes Khashoggi struggling against a group of people determined to kill him.

He repeatedly says, “I can’t breathe”. The transcript notes the sounds of Khashoggi’s body being dismembered by a saw, as the alleged perpetrators are advised to listen to music to block out the sound.

According to the source, the transcript suggests that a series of phone calls are made, briefing them on progress. Turkish officials believe the calls were made to senior figures in Riyadh.

Some of the details in the transcript seen by CNN’s source have emerged in previous reports of the recording’s content, but Sunday’s report is the fullest account of the transcript that has so far been published. …

And why do you care?
He was not a US citizen, and the UAE considered him a traitor.

Care? Nope; just demonstrating the unoriginality of CNN’s fake sources. They don’t seem to be able to tell the difference between Khashoggi and Eric Garner.

Any word from CNN on who killed Seth Rich?

In my mind, it does point a finger at the Saudi Prince being the instigator. Does anyone not believe it was he who called the shots and these murderers were called upon to kill Kashoggi(sp?) in the most brutal way possible. What idiots that could not perform an efficient hit without fingers being pointed back at the one who ordered it. In this case, if true, it was Kashoggi’s fingers which were cut off doing the pointing...grim. At the least, the Prince should be deposed, if not charged.

How many drone strikes against terrorists have US presidents done. Just because a world leader gets his hands dirtier than our policians don’t make it our problem or our issue.

CNN wants to bitch - Waco, Ruby Ridge ....

CNN: It was just a typical DC botched robbery, you know, where nothing is stolen and someone is killed gangland style.

Maybe CNN’s sources have the drone-killed terrorists on tape saying “Hands up, don’t shoot” in Arabic or something.

It’s a hoax perpetrated by the enemy of the people.

What is the best song to drown out a guy being dismembered by a bone saw?

“The First Cut is the Deepest”?

“Cuts Like A Knife”?

“Mack the Knife”?

If it was me being dismembered, I’d want “Believer” by Imagine Dragons. A song about pain; I think it fits.

I’d pick “Chain Saw” by the Ramones. It’s about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie and the protagonist losing his girlfriend to a mental institution due to her obsession with the movie, but why not.

I liked this comment by Lindsey Graham

"Graham, who was among a group of senators to receive a classified briefing on the Khashoggi case, said last week he agreed with the conclusions of the US security services that bin Salman was implicated in the case.

"There's not a smoking gun, there's a smoking saw," he said.

Nice zinger Lindsey. :-)

Oh, good choice! Bravo!

Dumb question, but did he at least get his marriage license he went in there for? I realize imams don’t marry you when your skeleton has too many separations, but still, embassy customer service should have some pride.

I’m betting some type of terrible world dance techno/pop. Just something horrendous and horrific.

Good questions. As far as I know, nothing has been verified, and the story keeps changing.

I can't breath?

My guess - they slapped the guy around a couple times, he's 60 years old, and he had a fatal heart attack.

Bottom Line....

Why would anyone believe anything that Recep Erdogan - the Muslim extremist dictator of Turkey - says about anything?
