Jamal Khashoggi and the failed plot against MBS Thierry Meyssyan has an interesting view on this act in the tragic events surrounding this "journalist" ..  It ties to Las Vegas, support for the Muslim Brotherhood of which Erdogan is a staunch supporter and their plot (s) to penetrate foreign embassy's. No new info, I guess, just a reminder of what we are looking at and why it matters to the current US administration:  Later on Jamal went on to serve Prince Al-Waleed ben Talal, who was submitted to a long period of torture at the Ritz-Carlton during the palatial coup in November 2017. < In recent years, Jamal Jamal Khashoggi has taken up the defence of the Muslim Brotherhood and Israel. This is why he had been hired by Washington Post. < According to our sources, several members of the Saudi Royal Family whose assets were partially or totally confiscated in November 2017 during the Palace Coup, were preparing a plot against the Crown Prince Mohamed ben Salman (known as “MBS”) and Jamal Khashoggi was caught up in this conspiracy. Turkey had managed to step up a system to bug the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. Turkey’s conduct in this instance constitutes a violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. Although it cannot publish them, Ankara has recordings that contain information, extracted under torture, relating to the plot against MBS. It seems, some people are painting themselves in a corner. Added:   Another issue that may be tight into this is the fact that SA is in the process of also buying the "Iron Dome" from Israel ....making some people very unhappy ...
