A new whisper campaign against him is trying to blur the truth: that he criticized certain U.S-Arab alliances, and paid the price…
In the early summer of 2005, during the height of the U.S. war in Iraq, I arranged to have lunch with Jerry Jones, a special assistant to then-Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. I had heard rumors that Jones and a number of senior U.S. military leaders were holding quiet talks with prominent Islamists and other officials representing Iraq’s tribes at a hotel in Amman, Jordan. The discussions were part of an effort by Jones and senior military officers to end the Anbar insurgency, which was responsible for a lengthening list of U.S. casualties in Iraq.
For the outset of our meeting, Jones (a gangly and affable Texan who’d served in influential positions in several Republican administrations), detailed the challenges facing the U.S. military in Anbar and provided a summary of the “brutal,” “bloody” and “harrowing” fighting there. America’s military deaths were spiking, with no end in sight. “We’re in trouble,” Jones concluded. While much of this was known at the time, Jones’s narrative stunned me. “Are you telling me that we’re losing the war in Iraq?” I asked. Jones chuckled and shook his head: “Losing? We’re not only losing,” he said, “we’re on the wrong side.”
Not much has changed in the intervening years, as the recent murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the hands of a Saudi kill team has shown. While the U.S. was able to quell the Anbar insurgency, America has stumbled from position to position in the region, primarily because we’ve continued to make the same mistakes that we made in Anbar—we’re losing in the Middle East because we’re on the wrong side, a side that is represented by leaders like Mohammed bin Salman. Khashoggi knew this better than anyone.
Last August, Khoshoggi authored a Washington Post article cataloguing these stumbles, and offering a solution. Khoshoggi wrote that America’s failure in the Middle East was the result of its failure to recognize the importance of the region’s Islamist parties—primarily the Muslim Brotherhood. “There can be no political reform and democracy in any Arab country without accepting that political Islam is a part of it,” he wrote.
Khashoggi’s critique was both eloquent and controversial. It’s why he was murdered.
“The United States’s aversion to the Muslim Brotherhood,” he wrote
“. . . is the root of a predicament across the entire Arab world. The eradication of the Muslim Brotherhood is nothing less than an abolition of democracy and a guarantee that Arabs will continue living under authoritarian and corrupt regimes.”
While eloquent, Khoshoggi’s views weren’t a surprise. He had made the same point to me back in 2005 (we were only acquaintances, though we found ourselves singing from the same songsheet), during a conference of Islamist organizations in Beirut, which included the senior leaders of the Brotherhood. America was fated to fail in the Middle East, Khoshoggi told me then, because it was “unable to distinguish real enemies from true friends.” More simply, since 9/11 (as he described it), the U.S. had failed to distinguish between Islamists who have constituencies and are political parties (like the Muslim Brotherhood), with those who have no constituencies and are networks—like al-Qaeda and, later, ISIS. Conversely, the leaders whom we then and continue to identify as secular reformers and our closest friends and allies (a list that includes General Abdul Fattah al-Sisi in Egypt and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in Saudi Arabia) are neither. They are policemen.
If there is any compensation in this sordid tale, it is that America’s mistakes have been bipartisan. George Bush’s invasion of Iraq did not end al-Qaeda’s threat, but actually strengthened it (and empowered Iran), while Barack Obama’s pledge to the Egyptian people that the U.S. would support “a democratic political order with participation from all sides” breathed its last when, in August of 2013, the Egyptian military massacred over 600 pro-democracy demonstrators in Cairo’s Rabaa Square. Obama looked the other way.
Put simply, when the chips were down, America’s political leaders didn’t support hope and change, they supported reaction and murder. They put American on the side of the thugs.
The idea (momentary, fleeting) that this would change under Donald Trump, died a comical death on May 21, 2017 in Riyadh, when our president placed his hands on a glowing orb that symbolized the establishment of Saudi Arabia’s “Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology.” Joining him in this decidedly perverse celebration was Egypt’s dictator Abdul Fattah al-Sisi and Saudi Arabia’s King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.
“This groundbreaking new center represents a clear declaration that Muslim-majority countries must take the lead in combating radicalization,” Trump said during the ceremony, “and I want to express our gratitude to King Salman for this strong demonstration of leadership.”
Among the onlookers that Sunday evening was son-in-law Jared Kushner and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef. Jared was then ensconced as the administration’s new point man on Middle East peace (the bar is low, so why not?), while bin Nayef was on his way out the door —escorted there by Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s newly anointed and photogenic strongman. And so it was that while many of America’s journalists recoiled from Trump’s decision to make common cause with Fatah al-Sisi, they safely ignored him as they tripped all over each other to praise his alter-ego, and supporter, bin Salman or “MbS.” Bin Salman, they said, was a leader who promised to create “a more modern, more entrepreneurial, less-hidebound and more youth-oriented society.”
That promise, it seems, has now been drowned out by the screams of a reporter who dared tell the truth. It’s no wonder that many foreign policy officials view Khashoggi’s death as a possible turning point in U.S.-Saudi relations—and one that might spur a rethinking of U.S. policy in the region. But even that hope is now beginning to fade, led by the reaction of a community of voices—including National Security Adviser John Bolton, his allies at Frank Gaffney’s Center for Security Policy, and the new Kushner-linked Strategic Studies Group—have mounted a well-documented “whispering campaign” that Khashoggi “pimped for the Brotherhood.”
In one sense, of course, they’re right. For what Khashoggi was telling us (and what he wrote in his August piece in the Washington Post) is that the U.S. has gotten the Middle East terribly wrong. That we have miscast our enemies and misidentified our friends. That the forces for change in Cairo and Riyadh are not in its governments, but in its prisons. That America is not only losing in the Middle East, it’s on the wrong side. That Mohammed bin Salman is not a friend of democracy, but its enemy.
Khashoggi was right. Which is why he was murdered.

Ummm, lots of people point out the amero-zionist empire is on the ‘wrong side’, and often in very direct and blunt terms. And pretty much all of them are still breathing. The idea this guy (alone) was killed for stating such obvious, and well known-facts, reads more like spin, than truth. No one had heard of this guy before this all went down, or his work, and he was far from a household name (anywhere). Had he lived, It is doubtful anyone here would have ever heard of him, his opinions, or his work(s?).
This article, is spin and deflection, promoting the idea (again!), of a well-intention and pure-hearted world policeman that keeps trying to go good, but always seems to keep getting tripped up by all the bad apples of the world (middle east). The unstated implication of this self-serving narrative is the the uS has the right basic idea interfering in the middle-east, it just need to do a better job of it. LoL, sure.
This dumbass article, will never tell you there is nothing accidental about uS, or jew, or saudi policy. Sure they screw up, miscalculate, suffer setbacks from time to time, but none of it, was ever predicated on promoting world peace and goodness. ‘They’ know exactly what they are doing, or want to do at any rate, and who they are supporting to do it.

The point about him being obscure is rather important. This suggests that he was engaged in other activities under cover of being a journalist and it is these activities that are linked to his gruesome death. He was probably a multiple agent for various parties including the USA and the Saudis. We will probably never know what triggered his murder.

Excellent and brutally honest summary of current events and for why the US continues to blunder in the ME.
Remember how the success in quelling the Anbar insurgency was hailed as a turning point and a change of strategy? Then the truth. Nothing complicated. The US simply promised and continues to bribe the Sunni insurgents with regular cash payments. Once the money train derails, and it will, then what?

American friends in the mideast are the guys who can pump the oil and keep the millions of darkies from having legitimate democracy that can share the wealth like in other darkies countries or say a south American socialist oilistan. Moralistic fluffery like the above article is only idealism for our western collective souls. Real politik is that the oil must flow and the neofacist chauvinism of sunni extremist Islam will be tolerated by our elites no matter the cost to anyone to keep them in wealth and privilege.

Anonymouse1 on Wed, 24th Oct 2018 2:48 am
Exactly dissident. The current narrative being sold to the gullible masses, is plainly false as I said above. The sauds, likely engage in casual murder on a fairly regular basis. The uS and Israel, for their part, keep such activities of their more favored and important satraps, out of the news. One of the fringe benefits of being the local satrap for empire. BUT, something went wrong on this one, and, the ‘story’ got released into the wild. Thus, the spin machine goes into overdrive. The slant to the story suggest the masters of empire are perhaps, unhappy with the current towhead in Riyahd and are using the incident to put some pressure on him. These things happen.
It is also safe to say, that this guy was likely not who, or what, he is being sold and marketed though the ‘news’ as. His ‘criticism’s of the saud puppet regime, were pretty mild and posed exactly zero threat to the House of Towelheads reputation, or hold on power. Not out of line to suggest he was killed for entirely different reasons, having, as dissident also suggests, little to do with his journalism.
Still, the amount of fake outrage and posturing being trumpeted by the ‘free-press’ corporations on this matter, is rather appalling, given the source.
Than again, this is mostly what the media sells these days: Manufactured news, and manufacture outrage.

As I predicted a few months ago, the Republicans would use the massive federal budget deficits being accrued as a result of the Trump tax cut for the very rich as an excuse to cut our Social Security and Medicare. Here’s the news from yesterday from Newsweek.

Meanwhile, the latest Gallup poll shows that support for President Trump surged to 44% during the first two weeks of October, just one percentage point below his personal best, which was reached during his first week in office. Gallup attributed the bump to the contentious confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, as the decades-old accusations of sexual misconduct apparently galvanized support for the president.”

The article is wrong. It assumes a benevolent hegemon, where in reality there is only a hegemon. The US is not “misguided”, just on the losing end of history. Egypt and KSA have regimes willing to be a US client state, that’s what matters. The Muslim Brotherhood stands for Muslim independence, outside empire, can’t have that.
Turkey and Iran are improving their relations and Turkey supports the MB… as a vehicle of change, in KSA and Egypt. Both Turkey and Iran want regime change in KSA and Egypt and reignite the Arab Spring, nipped in the but by the Egyptian army.

“400 bps”: Italy Inadvertently Sets The Red Line For The Coming Bank Run”
https://tinyurl.com/y7nuo2ne
“In what may prove to be a painful admission in retrospect and an inadvertent green light for future bank runs, on Wednesday morning Italy’s Cabinet Undersecretary Giancarlo Giorgetti said in an interview on Italy’s RAI that Italian banks would need a “recapitalization” if the spread with German bonds continues to rise toward 400 basis points, from the current level of 314bps which is just shy of the widest level it has been going back to early 2013. The last time “lo spread” hit 400 bps was in late 2012, around the time of Mario Draghi’s legendary “whatever it takes” speech.”
“Said otherwise, the Italian population will now be even more focused on the spread of Italian bonds, and the higher it grows, the less comfort Italians will have with keeping their savings in local banks, and the more likely bank jogs (and then runs) will become. Having thus set the bogey, Giorgetti then tried to assure the population that such a move would not be needed, as the government would be ready to intervene “immediately” if needed and “won’t wait months as Matteo Renzi’s government did with Monte dei Paschi” although as Berlusconi so fondly remembers, any attempts at intervention will ultimately end up futile if not backstopped by the ECB and/or Brussels.”

Davy has an A-type personality, ‘Boney’. He is independent minded and conservative. He does not respond well to criticism and is sensitive on some subjects. A sure sign of having worries about the future (which is what brings him here) and having taken too much shit from bullies just like you. That doesn’t make him a bad person. He is that way precisely because of shitheads like you. I would not describe him as a bully; he seldom starts bitch fights, but does have trouble dropping them. Your assessment jumps to conclusions for which you have no evidence. Leaving aside psychoanalysis, he provides a positive contribution here; you do not.
You on the other hand, are a bully. You are cruel, harsh, spiteful and unfair. You do not value diversity of opinion, but are clearly threatened by it. You display spite and anger that would be terrifying in anyone I had to meet in the real world. You have no manners and in spite of your criticism of others as ‘haters’ you display exactly the qualities you claim to criticise. Most of the shit you attribute to Davy is a reflection of your own rage and disappointment and your desire to find fault in others rather than face your own angry demons.
It always amazes me that people who claim to be skilled in psychoanalysis lack any power of introspection. Here you are venting spite at anyone not sharing your own peculiar ideals; bullying and trying to intimidate them. It doesn’t work so well on an anonymous internet forum but it is still distasteful to watch. What does your ‘highest score ever attained on the Watson Glaser Thinking Appraisal’ tell you about your own personality? Do you have the courage to take a hard look at yourself?

Well, so much for the Monday morning quarter backs, and back of the Cracker Jacks Box trained psychoanalysts. So why was Khashoggi murdered? The Middle East is oil, said and done. It would take a pile of camel dung, and dates the size of the moon to equal one day of its petroleum production. Throw in Islam, and we have a heap of oily, paranoid spook chasers that are likely to go Postal at the next community mosque shindig. Khashoggi knew something, and he was in a position to broadcast it. Most likely it had something to do with oil; because that is the only thing in the Middle East that can threaten the status quo. As far as the US is concerned it is always on the right side; the side that can deliver the oil. That is why it keeps the largest military force in the world real real close to it. Khashoggi knew something, and threatened to use it. The Middle Eastern fields are on their last leg, and Prince Chief Camel Jockey #8 wasn’t taking any chances that he was going to announce it. Now, in typical Saudi fashion, they have screwed it up, and we will hear every story that can be conceived, but the one that really matters.

He at least occasionally knows when to rein it in and has a useful story to tell when it comes to energy transition, which is the bread and butter of this site.
Calling me ‘Anus’ and calling Davy ‘Turd’, amongst other things, demonstrates a lack of emotional maturity and a bullying streak that I would not expect to see in a trained professional; especially one with management responsibility over other people. Your posts contain a lot more slander than logical argument. You do not come across as someone that would cope well with stress or difficult social situations. One of the first things I was taught as a line manager was the importance of valuing diversity of opinion.
I too had to go through personality and aptitude tests to do my job. They do not share the results, but I wouldn’t be where I am if they had any serious concerns.

Many here claim intelligence, maturity, education, experience, etc. But when they comment, or offer rebuttals, their true self comes out. Some have switched to sock puppets, but they don’t realize that their old persona shines thru. The same word usage, type of putdown, childish bullying, brainwashing, etc. is blatant. They can run, but they cannot hide.

STFU billy, you love when the board is in turmoil. We all know who that comment is pointed to. It is not your friends that are the main perpetrators that’s for sure. You guys swap spit daily in glowing praise. Sick. If it gets quiet and you have a chance you start doing your stupid childish attacks. You flood this board daily with your personal agenda that is warped like your personality. You are a lonely old man who has no life anymore. You live off a slim stipend in a third world country in a little village in the Philippines. You claim this give you the heartbeat of Asia but the reality is you are in the cross hairs of natural disaster in an overpopulated country. Super typhoons are in your future and with them an eventual return to the US. If a natural disaster does not get you then assisted living is in your future if you live that long.

You people bore the hell out of me with all of your bickering and silly attacks on one another. Meaningless drivel that no one wants to listen to. None of you spend any time discussing real issues anymore. It is high time I started my own blog.

Why do you think I have no comment section on my blog?
Blogging is fun btw. And if you want 20,000 hits per month, add white nationalist content. I know from experience.

Anontarded1 on Thu, 25th Oct 2018 1:28 pm

The civilisation wreckers’ won’t be doing any wrecking for a couple of years at least; hopefully, for longer than that. The Donald has 24 months to slay the Jewish demon.

“I worked for one of the world’s largest risk management providers based in London. I retired with the position of Executive Vice President.”
I don’t believe that for a second, boney joel. People with a purpose do not waste time on the internet stalking anonymouse people they hate.

The public is eating from his hand now. Incredible how he managed to set up the public against the media, the core tool of the deep state. “Poor CNN”, they no longer control all the information channels, they are now outtwittered, out-HTTP-ed.
In the mean time, the brown mob is approaching the US border, a mob that can’t live without white man after all, half a century after decolonization. Decolonization that never should have happened, but happened on orders of the US, that is about to drown in said colored mob. Born slaves, headed by George Soros, who smells his chance to use these masses as a weapon against us. The US version of…

This can only end in an explosion of violence. White folks will soon openly carry guns again, like in the days of the Wild West.
“You go left, I go right, we’ll cut them off at the pass”.
Trump doesn’t have eternal life. Demography marches on unstoppable. His presidency will initiate the split between the white right and the rest of the country. Manifest Destiny will go in reverse gear. The Great Anglo Overlord will fall apart and ZOG will come to an end. It will begin around the end of Trump’s presidency.
Europe will see what happens in America and “populism” will turn into the hard right and take over from the libtard 1968-generation. Civilization will have to be reinvented.

Was K. used by US oligarchs for regime change in KSA? Probably. The Saudis panicked and got rid of him.

Sorry for failing to include your complete name.
I strongly suggest you take your laser like criticism and morally haughty tone and focus it on yourself. You’ll find a Dr. Jekyll // Mr. Hyde personality type.
“You people bore the hell out of me with all of your bickering and silly attacks on one another. Meaningless drivel that no one wants to listen to. None of you spend any time discussing real issues anymore. It is high time I started my own blog.”
Good grief, start with yourself before making criticisms of same to others.
Great idea starting your own blog, but it will never happen.

I know this is what you are hoping, but your clone already shared this ZeroHedge source. Btw, I added your prediction to a running list of your other brilliant prognostications. Time will tell just how much of a fool you really are.
By the way, since you know with confidence how the election will turn out, than you are willing to make a wager, right? Put your money where your mouth is.

neder please because of the intardweb that supertards built for me to enjoy your ideas aren’t worth all that much anymore. your blog is boring and you constantly need other medium to spread it and gain new recruits. that’s wy supertards banned alt-tard media and it crashed into earth. if someone shoots spencer it hardly makes news.
supertard ((richard stallmann)) fought for freedom to create software before any tard understood why it’s importnat. nowadays the GNU stack runs the intardweb that we all enjoy.
