When the New York Times and Washington Post give a damn about Americans murdered by illegals - THEN and ONLY then will we give a damn about Jamal Khashoggi.
(Liberals in the press say the percentage of people murdered by illegals is low - well, the number of journalists working in the US murdered is low too... so screw your pity party MSM)
The reason Khashoggi’s death can’t be ignored is the pressure being exerted on US foreign policy regarding Saudi Arabia. Mohammed bin Salman has been trying to weaken the influence of Wahhabism and effectively to reform Islam. He formed an alliance with Israel and Egypt and some of the Gulf states while Obama was in office because they all believe that Iran is the major threat to their survival and none of them believed that you could trust the Obama United States.
So Iran’s friends would love nothing more than to weaken MbS, and to split off the KSA from the United States, and they are using Khashoggi’s murder as a tool to do that.
