How is Saudi Arabia still in existence? It should have been nuked into Chernobyl on September 12, 2001.

Looks like they called Trump's bluff, and Trump will probably fold and do whatever the Saudis want.

Turkey did this.
It was an inside job.
Saudi Prince is cleaning house and Turkey had to throw a wrench in it.

Why would Turkey kill Keshoggi?

Okay, it's a tabloid. However, I think we should proceed with caution. Might want to wait for all the investigations before coming to a conclusion.

The intelligence poses a political problem for the Trump administration because it implicates Mohammed, who is particularly close to Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser.



On Wednesday, Kushner and national security adviser John Bolton spoke by phone with the crown prince, but White House officials said the Saudis provided little information.

I'm sure Trump who curtsied to the Saudi King, to show his love of DESPOTS, is thrilled over the murder of a journalist!
Ok, I'm done reading what you post. Every single post is angry, every single post accuses Trump of anything and everything, and every single post is filled with more drama than a high school dance where someone stole someone elses boyfriend.

Just once I'd like to see a rational, well thought out post, but all I ever see is over the top anger (notated by overuse of emoticons), massive bold lettering, and nothing of substance.

Trump raised the tone and the Saudis don't look like they're going to lower their head and pay up like they have always done.
From one of their newspapers:
If US sanctions are imposed on Saudi Arabia, we will be facing an economic disaster that would rock the entire world. Riyadh is the capital of its oil, and touching this would affect oil production before any other vital commodity. It would lead to Saudi Arabia's failure to commit to producing 7.5 million barrels. If the price of oil reaching $80 angered President Trump, no one should rule out the price jumping to $100, or $200, or even double that figure.
The author of the article goes further and say that Saudi Arabia will stop buying weapons from the US and install a Russian base there.

A newspaper can say whatever it wants, but it seems things are getting serious. The Saudi stock market is down 7%.

Of course it was an "inside job"
It happened INSIDE the Saudi Consulate

By Saudi hit squad-
If Turkey provided info to the US and other Intel agencies part of it came from Khashoggi's own Apple Watch's recording of his torture and murder....

You are really scraping the bottom of the barrel with some of these posts...
