Saudi Arabia has, for the first time, admitted that journalist Jamal Khashoggi was killed inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. An announcement on Saudi media claimed Khashoggi died during a brawl between him and those he went to the consulate to meet. Eighteen Saudi nationals have been arrested in connection with the death and at least five prominent officials have been sacked. The story cut against the impressions given by Turkish investigators and left more questions than answers, including what happened to the journalist’s remains. Al Jazeera’s Andrew Simmons reports from Istanbul.

Oh, the timing.LOL

So the Saudis are saying that the 15 man hit squad became very threatened when Khashoggi started complaining about having his legs hacked off. Must be a Middle Eastern thing.

So where is his body. If there is a brawl, will they kill and chop his body.
What did they do with the chopped pieces, did they burn or cook and eat it.
As per their religion, they should bury with head and body and not mutilate. Hope the World asks for the body for a decent burial in a place of his wish.

LOL! I wonder how many people will believe these lies. And Sadam had weapons of mass destruction, Ghadaffi killed little children for fun, and Asssad is evil. It’s all lies. Everything you’ve been told since the day you were born is a lie. Will the largest terrorist organization in the world (the US government) sanction the third largest terrorist organization in the world (KSA’s gov) for commiting an act of terrorism? Oh, the irony! LOL! You couldn’t make up shit like this!

Ww3 will be soon. US is pulling out of missile development treaty. Though the rumored ‘hypersonic’ russian missiles kinda make the treaty redundant. The fact that drones and stealth planes are common place on battlefields makes the whole short range nuclear missiles thing a waste of time. It’s more pork for the military machine. Theres no way to defeat an icbm fired from inside one country which enters space and rains down nuclear bombs on any target. Short range nuclear weapons only cause crises like the Cuba missile crisis. Bad move by the US at the end of empire. Notice the complete lack of public debate before that decision, the military runs America. There was no public consultation on this again unilateral decision. Trump wants America to be back to 1984. Lots of coke, lots of Arab oil money, lack of media scrutiny for people like him.

“Opportunities Abound After Khashoggi-Gate”

“Now all of a sudden, every war-monger in Washington and Wall St. wants to cut ties with him because killing a political opponent is “beyond the pale?” Even Christine LaGarde of the IMF will be a no-show at MbS’s big “Davos in the Desert” conference. This is a political hit job. If this faux outrage wasn’t so transparent it would be pathetic. On second thought, it is pathetic.”
“The over-the-top moralistic chest-beating by the U.S. media is a clear sign that the The Davos Crowd – the unelected elites and their government quislings who think they run the world — wants things returned to the way they were before Trump. And with Trump’s huge victory over them in the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings, Mueller’s Russia-gate nonsense coming to a close and polls tightening like nooses around the DNC’s neck it was time to launch that last ditch effort to derail Trump before he consolidated power post mid-terms. So, with that as the motivation all that is lacking is the catalyst. There must have been a reason why MbS went after Khashoggi now, at a time when it could do the most political damage to Trump. What that could be I have no idea. Better minds than mine are working on that. What I know is that all of this stinks of former CIA Director John Brennan and Hillary Clinton trying to derail Trump’s recent domestic political victories and possibly save their own hides. Why else would Brennan be all over MSNBC being spoon-fed the official narrative by the talking head in this video if there wasn’t an angle here? Because they all know that if the Democrats fail to retake at least the House of Representative on November 6th, they will have almost zero leverage left on Capitol Hill to protect them from their myriad of crimes. The Senate is a lost cause, the Republicans will likely take 58 seats into 2020. So, the timing here is what is interesting to me. This situation screams manufactured crisis and everyone is looking at this as an opportunity to get something out of it. Either MbS was set up or he was provoked (thanks to his now legendary poor impulse control) into offing Khashoggi. There are almost as many theories out there as to why he would do this as there are motives for someone to go after MbS himself.”

brother joe, how come you say that? we are pulling out of the treaty so we can expose “cheatin’ putin”. you seem to forget the incentive to cheat was putin’s own idea of multipolar world. it’s putin’s peak for invading neighboring ukraine and former republics.
let’s the nukular race begin and this time invade russia when they’re exhausted from fighting the cold war 2

Not gonna happen. Germany wants cheap gas. Russia will never be isolated.
Thus ww3 needed to put us all in our little boxes. Pray for us.

Now Saudi foreign minister admits killing, says it was murder, so we have to believe it was ‘rogue killers’. May God grant congress the moral strength to act. I would rather suffer a major recession than suffer anymore at hands of these Wahabbist cowards. These hypocrites didn’t even give khashoggi the dignity of an Islamic burial. The wahabbi Saudis are not true followers of God, they love life and power they love satan.

The same pathological “exceptionalist” sense of entitlement. This tard druggie has it. Boat has it. Mob has it. Davy has it, but is somewhat more skilled in hiding it. It took me 5 years to see through him.
The world has a gigantic problem in neutralising this cancer. It is a ticking time bomb under the entire planet.

Neder, please, when have I advocated a conflict with Russia? Show the goods liar. There was a time years ago where you behaved reasonably. Today you are a disgusting example of all that is wrong in the world. I am not sure what snapped but you are lost in hate, resentment, and narcissism.

Davy is, and has always been, the most insane person posting comments here. He is so fucking crazy nobody else comes close!

JuanP, I totally agree. The list of problems he has would be too long to post here. A few are:
Delusional
Hypocritical
Arrogant
Uneducated
Immature
Abusive
Stalker
etc.

Brought to you by DDT tiny url.
Did this article get you all hot and lathered, DDT? This is your mother of all conspiracy fantasies- ClimateGate, PodestaGate, PizzaGate, HillaryGate, ObamaGate, SethRichGate all wrapped nicely together in one size fits all package.
The insane ramblings of the site nutter.
Pal, you are deteriorating by the day….

What happen Juan you weaken? I noticed an uptick with Boney Joe I figured as much. The handle stealing was a dead giveaway. You couldn’t resist getting back to your asshole ways. I guess you noticed billy and the sock cop a-noise1 getting slaughtered in intellectual battle. Supporting the board racist pig is pretty ugly too. Expect constant moderation, pussy.
