Our media is trying to paint this guy as just an innocent journalist doing his job. The Dan Rather of the Mideast murdered by a tyranical government. There is more to the story here and Jamal had some deep ties to terrorism. If he was murdered he just may have had it coming. We don't yet know what the Saudi's knew about this guy and maybe we never will but one thing for sure, he was far more than just a journalist. And before anybody starts saying murder is never right remember how the left heaped praise in Obama for having UBL murdered. "The media wants the Saudis to answer questions about Jamal Khashoggi. But maybe the media should be forced to answer why the Washington Post was working with a Muslim Brotherhood propagandist?" "In high school, Jamal Khashoggi had a good friend. His name was Osama bin Laden. “We were hoping to establish an Islamic state anywhere,” Khashoggi reminisced about their time together in the Muslim Brotherhood. “We believed that the first one would lead to another, and that would have a domino effect which could reverse the history of mankind.” "The friendship endured with Jamal Khashoggi following Osama bin Laden to Afghanistan. Khashoggi credited Adel Batterjee, listed at one time as one of “the world’s foremost terrorist financiers” by the Treasury Department, with bringing him to Afghanistan to report on the fighting. The media calls Khashoggi a journalist, but his writings from 80s Afghanistan read as Jihadist propaganda with titles like, “Arab Mujahadeen in Afghanistan II: Exemplifies the Unity of Islamic Ummah”. And when Osama bin Laden set up Al Qaeda, he called Khashoggi with the details. After Afghanistan, Jamal Khashoggi went to work as a media adviser for former Saudi intel boss, Prince Turki bin Faisal, alleged to have links to Al Qaeda. Those allegations came from, among others, Zacarias Moussaoui, the alleged twentieth hijacker. When the other 19 hijackers perpetrated the attacks of September 11, Khashoggi wrote that the Saudis would not “give in” to American “demands” for “unconditional condemnation” and “total cooperation”. Jamal Khashoggi was not a moderate. Some describe him as the leader of the Saudi Muslim Brotherhood. The Islamist network admires Hitler and seeks to impose Islamic law around the world. Nor was he a supporter of freedom of the press. In one of his Al Jazeera appearances, he complained that the Saudi government was allowing some journalists to report positively on Israel. His final project, DAWN or Democracy for the Arab World Now was meant to aid Islamists. According to Azzam Al-Tamimi, an old Muslim Brotherhood ally aiding Jamal, “The Muslim Brothers and Islamists were the biggest victims of the foiled Arab spring.” Al-Tamimi has endorsed suicide bombings. But unlike Osama bin Laden, Khashoggi did not use the Muslim Brotherhood as a gateway drug to the pure and uncut violence of Al Qaeda or ISIS. He was still betting on a political takeover." The media will always take the side of Islamists over non-Islamists. That’s why it bleeds for Khashoggi The media will always take the side of Islamists over non-Islamists. That’s why it bleeds for Khashoggi. There was a reason why Jamal Khashoggi felt so comfortable in Turkey, while actual journalists in the country were terrified of being locked up, tortured and disappeared. If that was the fate that befell Khashoggi, it was a commonplace one in Turkey. The media’s disproportionate outrage over Khashoggi has nothing to do with human rights. If it did, the media would have been just as outraged at the arrests and torture of tens of thousands in Turkey. https://canadafreepress.com/article/the-ugly-terror-truth-about-jamal-khashoggi
I personally don’t think our government has an obligation to care about this fella. Us has to be in the Middle East for oil and to tamp down terrorism. With that being said no matter who we partner with in the Middle East there will be things like this due to their culture.
And Global warming is fake... https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics...mal-khashoggi-whisper-campaign-newday-vpx.cnn :EDIT: Wrong link
Dawg. You understand that the entire West supported the Mujahideen in Afghanistan against the Soviets, no? A bit of a hypocritical and absurd stance to take Kashoggi personally denounced violence over, and over, and over again. By the way, you guys are literally running the same propaganda story like lemmings. Seriously, do you guys not feel kind of stupid by falling for this?
1. Isn’t he a citizen of their government? That’s my understanding 2.ok if he is what should the us do? Sanction them causing animosity in a fragile region potentially giving other governments like Russia an opportunity. Completely cut ties and form a new ally in the region? That doesn’t address how historically these allies cause us problems in the future and the problems are due to their culture.
Guess you missed this part. "His final project, DAWN or Democracy for the Arab World Now was meant to aid Islamists. According to Azzam Al-Tamimi, an old Muslim Brotherhood ally aiding Jamal, “The Muslim Brothers and Islamists were the biggest victims of the foiled Arab spring.” Al-Tamimi has endorsed suicide bombings."
Twitter just suspended a bunch of accounts for spreading this exact same propaganda. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/technol...ts-spreading-pro-saudi-tweets-khashoggi-case/ Unfortunately there are a bunch of people willing to pick up the flag and run with it.
And Kashoggi denounced Bin Laden after he became the terrorist monster he was. So what is YOUR point?
As I said in the OP we may never know. If he was murdered by Saudis they may well have had a good reason just as we did with UBL. This guy was obviously part if the jihad movement.
There is nothing in any of your links to support that, and there is a ton of evidence to the contrary. Why are you pushing this fake narrative?
Which is a total lie. Provide the quote of Al-Tamimi explicitly saying that he supports suicide bombing civilians. Stop and think for once instead of just regurgitating what’s been spoon-fed to you.
Legal residents dont have the same protections as citizens because hes not a citizen. That just means he can live in the US, it doesnt mean we have the same obligation to him we do as a citizen The constitution doesnt afford any protections outside the US soil. The dude was in Turkey, at a consulate for his country.
Our collective Left always hates it when someone finally gets around to telling the REST of their ideologically tainted stories. It urinates all over their POLITICAL narrative. Of course fortunately for them the vast bulk of this nation's media outlets are owned and operated by people ideologically loyal to them and so only FOX ever promotes the rest of the story.
I posted a link and this threads based on that link. If you can prove it wrong and discredit it feel free to do so.
