Thanks for the admission.
Now where are the body parts that were “destroyed?”

Somewhere scattered around a dense forest in Turkey apparently. Trump "I love the Saudis" has remained somewhat distant describing it as "rogue elements" at work. Very weird given Khashoggi worked as a journalist for the Washington Post. I'm surprised he hasn't called it "fake news". :roll:

I have just seen some Saudi (hypocrite) minister on the news talking about getting to the bottom of this matter in total transparency :yikes:

He ought to try stand up

No perhaps about it.

Wars suck... genocides are a crime against humanity

True and as wutang rightly pointed out, Yemen is now on the brink of the worst famine in a century should war continue. A news report was on the other night with sights reminiscent of Ethiopia back in the 80's. Horrible.

On the subject of genocide, have you watched the three part documentary BBC screened, "A Dangerous Dynasty: House of Assad"? If not, it's well worth viewing.

Especially considering one of those killed was a US Ambassador.

Thousands being butchered in Yemen which the United Nations warned this week could plunge 13-million people into a famine which would be the worlds worst in 100 years. But nobody bat's an eyelid.

But that's war. War has always resulted in mass casualties, often innocent civilians. I'm talking about premeditated murder of a specific citizen, by their own country.

It's surprising when you consider this year the Saudi government bombed a bus full if school children, killing them all and we barely heard a thing about it in mainstream news.

Obviously the murder of this journalist is appalling but there'll be a reason it's been made the leading story and it won't have anything to do with justice.
