LMAO!!!! about principles, morals and justice? are you joking!! this is the same media that campaigned for the Iraq wars twice and the bombings in Syria and other places ......this is the same media that never reports anything negative about Israel bombings. The history is long, especially with the CIA and now all of the sudden they found their principles, morals and justice because 1 Saudi got killed in Turkey, of all nice places to be.

As opposed to "NO morality" on yours and Trumps part.
Trump ONLY cares about MONEY and YOU FOLKS ONLY care about TRUMP.
The American People will decide which version of morality they prefer.

It was state run media back then where the internet did not exist like it does today.
There were millions of protestors against the war and they were told to go pound sand.

It is in establishments best interest to hope this blows over so we can continue dealing with the Saudi criminals like we have for the past 60 years..
Hopefully it gets out hand and royal family get dispatched to hell.

Granted, there’s often no bright line. But I’m pretty sure that most Americans think that making excuses for this particular act does indeed cross the line.

not making excuses. It's about accepting the reality that has been going on for decades and none of you gave a cr@p until now that the media is telling you to be outraged. The same media that refuses to report in millions of deaths and wars that they support.


Where is the outrage for China's government? I don't see anybody in the media reporting it. That's because their corporations are in the payroll of Chinese payroll and their interest.



Where was the media when FDR and Churchill turned a blind eye to Stalin's death squad?


Our foreign policy has nothing to do in not crossing the line.....we have crossed the line by a mile many times and I never see the outrage like we are seeing it now, so stop with the fake drama. We deal with Saudi Arabia because the alternative is a lot worse to a point that we have to sacrifice American troops if it ever gets to that.


so either accept 1 Saudi dead or accept the alternative of having many more deaths including Americans.

Jesus dude, take some history and stop sounding so ignorant. Since when our foreign policy and wars have ever been about "morality"

All U.S. wars and endless occupations are about money, natural resources and control. You think this started with Trump?

Your post like many others defending this can be summed up to, What about the money?

Why do you have so little faith in capitalism that we need the petrodollar and trade with corrupt dictatorships?

and who replaces the royal family who are moderates? the extremists. You ever put any thought if we do regime changes in the Middle East , who takes over? not really! the same people that wanted regime changes in Libya and Syria and don't put much thought to it because it's not you who will suffer the consequences.

Just to be fair. US media has always been hostile to China. What is the last time you heard any "positive" news about China?

On the other hand, US government and media have always been very friendly to Saudi Arabia.

so should we boycott China also and destroy the 2 best world economies and go into WW 3 because you all of the sudden have a bad case of morality outraged and only want to deal with countries that are like us with our same values?
