From the Times; what can you expect?
It really doesn’t matter what the Saudi government does. If it falls the country will convulse in Muslim revolutionary madness that will make the French revolution look civilized. The end result will be decades of increased terror. We need to tread lightly and not create another situation like allowing the Shah of Iran to fall. What idiocy that was.
I’ll believe the “bipartisan chorus” when they call for punishing Iran, first.
Muslim countries killing their own citizens (who have ties to terrorists) inside other Muslim countries.
This shouldn’t even be news.
Can we think about refusing to quote the New York Slimes?
No one is listening. Fiddle harder.
The reality is that whoever controls Arabian oil must sell it at market prices or the region will starve and devolve into economic and political chaos. The US, if its leaders and politicians were not so intertwined with the Saudis should have disengaged from them shortly after 9/11. They can never be trusted. Their bribing and “favorable” business deals to politicians has resulted in the American consumer paying much higher prices for oil and an immense transfer of wealth to these vile characters. Hopefully Trump will use the opportunity to fundamentally realign US policy.
So I think that DJT should contact the Saudi King and agree on some kind of sham "punishment" that can be announced to great fanfare.
The WaPo gave this Saudi activist a platform to campaign against the Saudi government. Then the Saudi Arabian government, a monarchy, reacted.
The Media are now using that reaction to attempt to get both governments to do their will.
Liberals and Deep Staters are more distraught over the fate of one Muslim Brotherhood operative than with the lives
of the many thousands of American citizens brutalized, injured, raped and killed at the hands of illegal aliens.
The guy was a friend of Osama Binladdin family. Ok, he was a good friend of the Osama Binladdin family that enjoyed target practice and posing with AK-47’s and RPG’s along with the Osama Binladdin family... but he was a reporter for the post, and had a residence in the US... not a citizenship, but a US residential address, like any foreign terrorists in waiting have. But he was a reporter for the post that didn’t write much, unless being interviewed by other reporters counts.
Congress from the getgo has yelled for sanctions against Saudi Arabia even before any of the evidence was in. More never Trump policy? It’s too back Congress won’t act that fast on immigration reform.
Amazing how wonderfully stupid the Never Trumpers, the clowns in “Conservative Inc” and the Leftists are.
Really stupid for any US Citizen to be actively pushing this Russian/Iran propaganda line.
On a personal note, muslims offing muslims has yet to upset me.However, I suppose, whose ox is the one being gored determines the source of the outrage. And, if another is needed, this is additional proof that the main stream media and its puppets are the enemies of America and Americans.
And I care....5,4,3,2,1
Oops, care gone.
The faux outrage over the Hamas loving SA national is ridiculous.
as horrific as the murder of this anti-American journalist is, don’t allow it to negatively impact the Trump peace plan for the ME. The President is doing some great work over there and the ME is calmer than any time in my lifetime. I wonder if this murder isn’t a setup to destroy all he has done and plans to do??
As far as I’m concerned it was good riddance to bad rubbish. I understand he contributed once in awhile so how is he called a “journalist from the Washington Post?” Essentially, in a choice between the backstabbing nutjob Erdogan and Turkey’s recent history being anything BUT a NATO ALLY, I’ll choose to side with Saudi Arabia.
