Journalist Khashoggi’s murder

This is what Trump may become if reelected. He has an unhealthy respect for people like this and could easily become a murder just like Putin and his middle east heroes.

Posted that on the Biden thread:

Since the Saudi crown prince approved the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi - according to the Office of the
Director of National Intelligence - the State Department has identified 76 Saudi Arabian individuals who may be subject to sanctions under what it is calling the "Khashoggi policy", according to Bloomberg News[/ur

With Biden circumventing the Crown Prince the question will be raised as to how long will this go on. Will it continue when he is king? This is a country where influence is everything and no shortage of royals with axes to grind after being locked up in a luxury hotel and forced to part with shedloads of loot.

Biden could be giving to wink to another coup.

Saudi Arabia has executed a man, Mustafa al-Darwish for crimes he allegedly committed as a minor.

He had already retracted his confession which was extracted under torture.

This is despite a promise not to kill minors.

Apparently Saudi Arabia has executed more people in the first half of this year than in the whole of last year.

I will never ever understand the Saudi's...................

I think it’s all about the Crown Prince consolidating his position. He’s executing a political opponent, dressing it up as a blow against Islamic terrorism.

It’s a message to home and abroad, he’s not going anywhere.

And it's likely only to get worse. Think Stalin or Hitler.
