President Donald Trump is failing as the sheriff of Saudi Arabia, we are instructed to believe. We are scolded that Trump must prosecute a murder of a Saudi citizen, Jamal Ahmad Khashoggi, inside Turkey. Who knew that the U.S. president must prosecute crimes in foreign countries?
Yet Trump apparently cannot give orders to his own attorney general or the U.S. Department of Justice. The left is outraged, in full hysteria mode, that Trump wanted to tell DOJ to prosecute Hillary Clinton. Our president is the chief law enforcement officer of Saudi Arabia, we are told, but certainly not of the United States!
Critics demand that Trump virtue-signal what he is going to do about Khashoggi’s murder. That would be in addition to the Trump administration’s sanctions on 17 Saudi officials. But virtue signaling is never enough.
So, what should Saudi Arabia do about the 650 murders in Chicago during 2017? Should the Saudi government investigate Hillary Clinton’s missing emails? The October 2017 mass shooting in Las Vegas by Stephen Paddock? Should Saudi Arabia stick its nose into whether Matthew Whitaker should be acting attorney general? No? Then why would Trump intervene in Khashoggi’s murder in Istanbul?
Here is the real story: Turkey’s pro-Muslim Brotherhood government is trying to manipulate the gullible United States into once again promoting the Muslim Brotherhood.

The new Saudi crown prince, “MbS,” who took power in 2015, is a reformer (relatively speaking), slowly backing away from the Muslim Brotherhood, ISIS, al-Qaida, Islamic Jihad and terrorism. So, he’s got to go! The left hopes to get Saudi Arabia back on its old track of supporting terrorism and beating women who go out in public without a man escorting them. Those mosques in the United States funded by Saudi princes are the type most likely to preach hate and incite terrorism. But somehow the left is always partial to the wrong team.
Yemen is poor but strategically located at a narrow choke point at the entrance to the Red Sea – the path leading to and through the Suez Canal. A radicalized Islamic jihadist Yemen similar to Iran could strangle not only the flow of oil to Europe but much of the world’s commerce. It would weaken both Egypt and Saudi Arabia commercially, making them easier to blackmail or topple.
Saudi opposition to the Houthi and other jihadists in Yemen must be stopped. If Turkey can get the Saudi military to back down, the Muslim Brotherhood can take over.
Turkey’s pro-Muslim Brotherhood party, led by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is the sole source of information about Khashoggi’s death on Oct. 2, 2018, in the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul. Why would smart people believe anything Turkey is telling us, including evidence of doubtful origin?
Anyone trust Turkey??
Did they run out from cryin over Kuhgoshi?
congrats to the writer for being the first to put it so succintly:

Thus Neom.
If Trump is now Sheriff, I say charity starts at home. The Chicago PD’s clearance rates suck.
“The Muslim Brotherhood needs “useful idiots” in the West.”
Look no further than Hillary and Obama, - they couldn’t lift a finger to helps Ambassador Stevens in Benghazi.
Now everyone is suppose to be in some kind of big uproar over some hack left leaning reporter that bought the farm in Turkey.
Personally, I could care less what the left does. Just don’t come crying whenever what goes around.....comes around.
I sure as hell do NOT trust either Turkey or SA
Maybe he’ll also be the sheriff of the Ukraine.
This Khashoggi “issue” is just another series of ankle bites from the Democrats; and it will soon be forgotten.
The sad part is that nitwit Republicans think it is a real issue and fall right into the trap designed to separate them from Trump.
Mittens has already separated himself from Trump on this “issue” and by the spring will do the same on more fake “issues” becoming a totally useless eunuch by his own hand.
There never was any Kashoggi murder.
Why is this terrorist still in the news?
Fake news
Made up
Untrue
Drivelous Balderdash
Trust Turkey?
NO!!
Exactly! (No, I don’t trust Turkey, even if we are talking Turkey)
ankle bites.... love it!
“There never was any Kashoggi murder.”
An idea that dare not speak its name. That there is WRONG-THINK! :)
The article draft originally had a reference to the movie “GONE GIRL.” Let him who has ears to hear, let him hear.
Kashoggi was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood for decades, a terrorist group periodically at odds with his own government.
He was always a legitimate military target, so it was impossible for his death at the hands of his government to be murder.
In the same vein, the Japanese who died at Tarawa weren’t murdered either.
