Why the death of Jamal Khasoggi had taken over the news

[Triipe]

Muhammad Kashoggi (1890-19787) was the personal doctor to the original founder of Saudi Arabia, King Abdulaziz Al Saud

Adnan Khashoggi (1935-2017) was his son, and a world famous Saudi Arms dealer that brokered deals between the US and SAfor a 10-15% commission


Adnan Khashoggi was implicated during the Iran Contra scandal (Nixon) and the al-Yammah arms deal (UK)
his yacht, once the largest in the world, was sold to Donald Trump for 29m back in the 70's

Adnan's sister was Samira Khashoggi. She was the mother of Dodi Al-Fayed, the boyfriend of Princess Diana who died with her in the car crash...




flash forward to this month, Jamal Khashoggi is presumed dead and the implications are running wild.
he is the presumed son/nephew of Adnan
Jamal traveled alongside Bin Laden (1987-1995) when the US was capping for Bin Laden
very little is known about his life, and he popped up as a Wash Post contributor recently.


This is why it is at the top of the news cycle.

no its probably taking over the news because its extremely disturbing that a regional power would lure someone to its consulate just to kill them

point is it's not some random washington post contributor that casually observed the actions of the Saudi State...

The potential motive is what should be investigated. You think the fact that his family brokered defence contracts between the Saudis and United States is of no consequence?

3 journalist were ransomed and killed in the Congo over the summer and it didn't make a blip on the radar. I'm aware that the involvement with the Embassy contributes to the stories craziness, but He wasn't a blog poster...I'll leave it at that.

obviously. journalists get murked all the time. but this guy was a columnist for one of the worlds biggest newspapers and got lured into a consulate where a foreign hit team killed him. thats way more newsworthy than three guys biting the dust in the congo.

MBS literally banned Khashoggi from appearing on Saudi TV because he was criticizing trump. and they aren't ways we cant understand, theyre just ways you cant understand.

Journalists get killed in a lot of countries.

Getting murked by a state operating in ANOTHER country who pulls you into their own embassy and then chops your body up is some next-level shyt.

Oh I forgot, you know more about a House of Saud than anyone else... He and his family were tied into the House of Saud by blood. His Cousin died in the wreck with Diana, and his father sold a yacht to Trump back in the day. If you think you know what happens behind the curtain you're just lying to yourself.


I'm not claiming to know why or what purpose his death may serve, but you're a simp if you think MbS killed this guy to appease Trump.

Ya thats facts, but trying to figure out why and for what purpose is far more interesting to me.

dont forget it again
it was probably more about his criticism of MBS imo trump probably didnt even care. but trump administrations relations with MBS and Saudis are a factor in that criticism

Dude was def Saudi establishment; just probably a different faction from MBS.
