Good morning, Rod. IMO the killing of Khashoggi was a Saudi Deep State operation to take out the Crown Prince. Recall that it was the CP who shook down over 300 rich Saudi princes, including Prince Alwaleed bin Talal who was held for 83 days in the Riyadh Ritz-Carlton until he agreed to hand over an estimated $6 billion. The CP has made many influential enemies including the Saudi intel community. Sound familiar?

The Saudis could have killed Khashoggi anywhere in the world using a cutout that could not be traced back to the Saudi government. Why kill him in a Saudi consulate in Istanbul? It makes no sense unless there was another agenda, i.e., removing the current CP.

Why Khashoggi and why now? There is much more to this story and I doubt we will ever learn the answers. It is all part of Saudi palace intrigue.

Interesting to note that Brennan was the station chief in Riyadh 1996-99, not long after I left the Kingdom in 1992.

I agree. It was done very openly considering.

Everyone should ask themselves this: Why? Who benefits? Who is harmed?

So far, we see the Left benefiting, as well as journalists and fake news organizations. The Muslim Brotherhood looks to gain a martyr.

This very much damages MBS’s reputation and efforts at reform. They are desperately trying to hurt President Trump with this.

We should collectively deflect all of this media concocted story and concentrate on what’s really important:

Keeping the House and extending our majority in the Senate.

See my tagline.

THank you so much for that post and as usual you are absolutely correct!This is not MBS’s style!and it is devised to get rid of him,the old guard,illuminati cabal and many others do not want the relationship MBS has with Trump and Israel. It is however the kings style, old Saudi style. They are brazen and dumb enough to do. This op would never have been done by MBS.

Rush spoke of this the other day...(deposing the CP) MBS is not the eldest of several sons, and was chosen over all of them. It seems they can strip him of his title and emplace another of the sons.

Jane Whoremoan saying Kashoggi agreed with the reforms, but disagreed with the excesses.

Somehow and in some way,I see the hand of Brennan in this killing. His hatred of this POTUS is boundless and I think he lives his life thinking up ways to harm him and his agenda for America.
You are right that there is no much more to this story.
