Nobody knows the whole story on that and clearly the few who do don't want to give the whole story on it.

They bought off Biden just like they did Bush and Obama. By promising major contributions toward their Presidential Libraries.

Can we stop calling Khashoggi a journalist? And maybe accurately refer to him as what he was? A terrorist sympathizer who humanized opposition viewpoints through print. I give zero fvcks about the Saudis snuffing him out. He was one of theirs, they can do as they please.

Also important to recognize the media outcry over him was a result of massive infusions of money from Iran to push an anti-Saudi narrative.

Your points/concerns are all well and good, but that's not the perspective i'm looking at.

To approve immunity to a foreign leader who, by all accounts (including our intelligence community), at the least, approved or authorized or engineered a murder of a civilian, after Biden spoke like a tough-guy when he criticized MBS during the presidential campaign for the killing, is a clear sell-out and obvious pandering for a more lenient attitude by Saudi Arabia on oil production. I don't like our leader going back on his comments or bending the knee to another country for oil.

I would think we, as a country, have snuffed out a few of our citizens in the last 20 years.

Ok, I wasn’t looking at it from that perspective.

Proverb in Saudi Arabia: “My grandfather road a camel, my father drove a Mercedes, I fly a Learjet, my son will drive a Mercedes, my grandson will ride a camel.

I’m looking forward to that day.

I love when you post! You truly are a centrist. I don't agree with you on everything, but I truly appreciate your logic and opinions.

You clearly are not biased. I've seen you bash both sides.

You're not a follower, you are a free thinker.

Thank you for your service.
