How do we even know Koshoggi is even actually dead? We have only the Turkish Government’s accusation of it don’t we?.
I wouldn’t put it past Koshoggi, the Muslim Brotherhood and Erdogan to conspire to pull something like this to embarrass The best moderating force against Wahabbism and other forms of radical islam that we have in many decades, and to drive a wedge between that moderating force and the US, and maybe even start a war over the most idiotic reasons.
And even if the Saudis did kill Koshoggi (cousin of and part-time salesman for the world’s most infamous arms dealer, by the way.) it is no loss to the civilized world.
Anyway, I’m glad to see that we now know who took over for McCain as the Senate’s key idiot warmonger and Muslim Brotherhood dupe. Rubio.
Although I’m sad to see Lindsey back to his old tricks.
Graham has always been a hawk; it just hasn’t come up lately.
But regardless of what happened to Koshoggi, there aren’t exactly any good guys over there, except Israel. It’s kind of like the 2012 election -— we had to pick the lesser of two evils. And that’s what Trump must do on our behalf. Does he throw our so called ally Saudi Arabia, under the bus to appease Turkey and the democrats, (so they can throw a fit no matter what)? Or do we maintain our relationship with a terribly flawed, but relatively supportive Saudi Arabia, which would, in the short run, be to our economic advantage, and in the long run, hopefully be of benefit to us? The fact that his Royal Highness is going to disavow any knowledge of the act, and blame and punish underlings for it, is little different than what all world leaders, including us, do when our participation in some immoral covert operation, is exposed.
For Linseed, this is one of those leftovers from cavorting with McCain all those years. He needs it covered up.
It hardly matters either way IMO.
We are enemies of Islamic terrorism. It is our duty as citizens to be so. And what kind of fuss should we make over the way an enemy was killed by an ally? What kind of fuss did we make when Stalin rolled his tanks over Germans?
He was a fifth columnist, a propagandist.
