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”.
“Saudis tend to link the ugliness of what happened in New York and Washington with what has happened and continues to happen in Palestine. It is time that the United States comes to understand the effect of its foreign policy and the consequences of that policy,” he declared.
“A Muslim cannot be happy with the suffering of others. Even if this suffering is that of Americans who neglected the suffering of Palestinians for half a century.”
That’s the real Khashoggi, a cynical and manipulative apologist for Islamic terrorism, not the mythical martyred dissident whose disappearance the media has spent the worst part of a week raving about. more here
h/t Really Enraged.
Jamal Khashoggi’s disappearance is long overdue.
The Saudi’s are to be commended for their effort.
I figured as much. Since the MSM is making such a big deal about it – I figured he must be a big POS – and good riddance. Maybe Trump should be thanking the Saudis.
Erdogan is lying. The Saudis have nothing to do with this. Why would they jeopardize the arms deal with US? Go to https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/10/14/ratcliffe-discusses-sketchy-turkish-story-surrounding-jamal-khashoggi-disappearance/
I heard someone mention this slug’s slimy persona the other day, I think on Tucker Carlson…might have been Mark Steyn that laid it out. Anyway, good riddance to bad rubbish.
But it’s amazing to watch the media whores rending their garments over this, while not batting an eye over stonings or persecutions all over the Middle East. They hide behind “multiculturalism”, and claim we have no right to judge other cultures.
Then again, it sure looks like the MSM house of cards is beginning to crumble in the age of Trump, so…
Thanks for this. Wondered what the bottom line is. Like Gladys above figured if the MSM loves him he must be trash.
Saudis mistake was not to hire the Arkansas fixer
it’s not ugly to tell the truth, it’s just the truth. am i right?
the truth shall set you free. be free my lil brown shirt fiend jk.
in life we all make choices, and sometimes we make bad choices. and sometimes there’s a group that is like correction fluid that is there to correct these bad choices and make them right again. then when things are right again order is restored from the chaos that came before.
so the moral of this story is:
think wisely before you make your choices in life, or you may vanish like the morning dew.
What about the hundreds of journalists killed in MEXICO over the years. They have no problem with that.
And nephew of Adnan, the famous arms dealer.
From the article — “A Muslim cannot be happy with the suffering of others.” Is that the biggest crock of horse-shit that you ever heard ??
Remember the name Adnan Khashogi? That scumbag of an arms dealer who was caught up in Iran Contra. That’s Jamal’s daddy.
I do not care, either. Too many good journalists have died, without notice, recently. Only I cared. Here, I do not care. ….Lady in Red
It’s what they do.
And he was employed by the Washington Compost. Why not expire him?
can’t help but have a gnawing feeling that this is a trap by the media (Soros, Bezos, et al) to taint PDT before the mid-terms
Khashoggi is not a US citizen … but is an employee of Bezos … Trump is under no obligation to find out about the disappearance/demise of Muslim Brotherhood member Khashoggi … Bezos is
but, the media will attack PDT no matter what the conclusion
I believe that KSA considers the brotherhood a terrorist org, when will we get them designated that here?
The Saudi’s reveal “Where in the World is Jamal Khashoggi” right now!
