I think a lot of the issue, at least for me, was the way in which this murder occurred. The heinous brutality of being dismembered was stunning. And the fact that he was a U.S. resident, working for a U.S. corporation, and had American children. Why are you upset that the Saudis are being taken to task now?
You can bet Russia and North Korea are looking at our reaction, if they can get away with murder we will be perceived as weak. Remember Saudi Arabia was the first country that Trump visited and one of Kushner’s favorites. I would love to hear a statement from Trumps son in law, is he under protection, where is Bolton?

He's BFFs with the crown prince. I don't see him making any sort of statement. I still can't believe Pompeo tried to sell the idea that the prince wasn't complicit. We really need to step up.
Look, if the government (whether the Prince or any other high ranking official) ordered this killing, there should be repercussions as it was a despicable act. That said, we've seen too many "smoking guns" before used as an excuse for war/sanctions/etc., and later turn out to be more than questionable. I dissent from this rush to action by neocons and warmongers on the left alike.

And also the fact that the President of the United States and the Secretary of State have basically pardoned MBS despite strong evidence that he ordered the murder. Dictators around the globe have noticed this with approval.

Fortunately, the people who have seen and heard the evidence disagree. Who's talking about war anyway? I don't think there is any question about MBS's involvement. Unless you're talking to Trump or Pompeo.

The surprising part of this is Bolton's complete silence, just imagine his statement if this was Iran.

There are plenty of questions, or else we wouldn't be having this debate. But, note, there was supposed "hard evidence" of WMDs in Iraq, of the Gulf of Tonkin narrative, etc. I've had enough of some of this "intel."
It sounds like Macron / the French Government was involved in some capacity.
