Try to grasp the horrific magnitude of Trump's decision: essentially approving of state murder for a pesky journalist because he had the audacity to tell the t***h about the Saudi government. Khashoggi is, in Trump's eyes, an enemy of our oil alliance, mucking things up a bit he was. What's the big deal, just a member of the Press is dead for his courageous fight against oppression? Any sane and decent American citizen, as well as the rest of the world, should be outraged and afraid of this assault on free speech. It is an extremely dangerous implied nod of approval for autocrats everywhere that they are free to murder whoever gets in their way.

Reading what the president and Pompeo said concerning this incident and taking no action against Saudi Arabia, rings like a page out of Neville Chamberlain's book on diplomacy. BTW, the CIA has proven the Crown Prince ordered the murder. https://www.yahoo.com/news/cia-concluded-saudi-crown-prince-ordered-journalists-k*****g-233204882.html

The United States will continue to back Saudi Arabia even if Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) ordered the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, President Donald Trump announced Tuesday in a bizarre statement filled with exclamation marks.

“We may never know all of the facts surrounding the murder of Mr. Jamal Khashoggi,” Trump said in the statement. “In any case, our relationship is with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. They have been a great ally in our very important fight against Iran.”

“The United States intends to remain a steadfast partner of Saudi Arabia to ensure the interests of our country, Israel and all other partners in the region,” the president added.

The White House’s highly anticipated decision on whether the U.S. planned to hold MBS accountable comes more than a month after the death of Khashoggi, a Washington Post columnist and critic of the crown prince.

The Washington Post reported last week that the CIA had determined MBS ordered Khashoggi’s assassination. The Saudi journalist is believed to have been k**led soon after entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, and his body was then dismembered and disposed of.

Saudi Arabia has acknowledged that members of the crown prince’s inner circle were involved in the assassination, but has denied he had any personal knowledge of it. The kingdom has charged 11 people in connection with Khashoggi’s murder and is aiming to sentence to death five of the suspects.

“The world is a very dangerous place!” Trump said in the statement Tuesday. “Our intelligence agencies continue to assess all information, but it could very well be that the Crown Prince had knowledge of this tragic event – maybe he did and maybe he didn’t!”

Trump defended his decision to stand with Saudi Arabia by noting the country’s significant investments in U.S. military equipment and other contracts, a shared allegiance against Iran, and its pledge to spend billions of dollars to fight “Radical Islamic Terrorism.”

Additionally, the president said, the U.S. has already taken “strong action” against those “known” to have participated in Khashoggi’s murder. The Trump administration last week sanctioned 17 Saudi officials ― the 15-man hit squad sent to k**l Khashoggi, the Saudi consul general in Istanbul and a senior adviser to MBS ― in response to the premeditated k*****g.

Despite the CIA’s reported findings, Trump’s statement Tuesday suggested the U.S. would not take any further punitive action against Saudi Arabia. The CIA is expected to release its full report this week.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo doubled down on Trump’s message during a press conference Tuesday afternoon.

When asked whether Saudi Arabia would be affected by Khashoggi’s k*****g, Pompeo said it’s in the best interest of U.S. national security to maintain a partnership with the Middle Eastern kingdom.

“It’s a mean, nasty world out there ― the Middle East in particular,” Pompeo told reporters. “It is the president’s obligation, indeed the State Department’s duty as well, to ensure that we adopt policies that further America’s national security.”

Saudi Arabia is “an important partner of ours,” he added. “It’s that straightforward. This a long historic commitment and one that is absolutely vital to America’s national security.”

Trump thinks he's Churchill, Churchill could get away with anything, let me tell you Trump is deluded because Churchill alone was unstoppable, Trump for sure will fall short.

Picture this, Hess is murdered because he's got the dirt on Churchill, he was over 93 and kept in solitary confinement for over 2 decades (1966 -1987) of his life no paper no pencils allowed.

That wasn't good enough for the British, so they strangled him to death, put his body in a steel coffin and welded it up.

My theory is Mohammed bin. Salman got wind of it probably from one of his victims at the Ritz-Carlton hotel, MbS has never read a book but loves hearing stories from peoples h*****g upside down being wacked on the feet.

On hearing about Hess, - Mohammed bin.Salman said, "Well !! hummmm, do you know what, !! , a dozen suitcases is just as good as a welded up steel coffin Trump will for sure will agree, he's always done so before".

But the i***t didn't know history, the family of Hess cut the coffin open and had a autopsy, and it was found he was strangled horizontal not on an angle.

Being an old man I suppose he could have hanged himself lying down, and do you know what Trump is almost certain to believe that he did, indeed.

So I hope that explains this riddle.

I see your not convinced, try this.

Trump's obviously desperate Dan the Used Car Sales Man, so a sucker comes along and said, "Dan your such a good sales man, tell you what I'm going to do for you my boy, I'm going to give you a nice pristine piece of plastic goin' to be for what it's worth $20".

Dan didn't look up from writing the sales contract, just one hand came out unattended and took the money not one hair out of place, but when Dan got up to show the customer out, his bee's knees was missing, and in their place was two cardboard cutouts, so the customer goes home in the old bomb car with 15 Sheila's following.
