If You Knew Khashoggi, You’d Be Outraged Too

Post by FlyingPenguin »

One of the big reason this has become as big a story as it is, people don't realize that Kashoggi was MUCH more than a reporter. Almost everyone on capital hill and in major corporations knew him personally. Because of his insider connections, and previous experience working in the Saudi government, he was a high demand adviser to congressmen, senators, bureaucrats, corporations, and intelligence agencies trying to understand the inner workings of a government more secretive than the former Soviet Union.

This isn't going to just go away. And no one is buying the Saudi coverup story.

Except Trump. Sounds reasonable to him after all.
