End of "Muh Russia, and Start of "Muh Saudi"... Fascinating Summary Comment by daughnworks247 on CTH “......  I believe we are seeing, in real time, the death of “Muh Russia, and the beginning of “Muh Saudi”. This is a summary of Patrick Poole’s research on Khashoggi, Saffuri, and the international intrigue of the disappearance/murder of Jamal Khashoggi, the alleged Washington Post journalist. Think of this fight as the Hatfield’s and McCoy’s of the Middle East as well as competing factions of Clintons and Trumps in DC. We seem to have a multi-generational struggle between the radical Islam Saudis and the good Saudis, represented by young Prince Mohammed Bin Salman-MBS, who are trying to open up the country and quash terrorism. In this story, Turkey plays a supporting role and the UK, Iran, Qatar, have bit parts. We’ve learned that most of the allegations of murder/disappearance of Khashoggi accusing Saudi Arabia are coming from a man named Khaled Saffuri, who approached the Washington Post and David Isikoff with the story. The wild allegations blew up from there.  As the story goes, Jamal Khashoggi entered the Saudi Embassy in Turkey and was never seen again. The Turks claim Khashoggi was murdered and dismembered in the Embassy, they claim a 15 member Saudi hit squad was responsible, they claim they have recordings of his murder from his Apple watch, but no one has yet produced any evidence. Yes, Jamal Khashoggi is an employee of the Washington Post. You will remember David Isikoff, reporter for Yahoo, as the guy who was the launderer for Christopher Steele’s dirty Russia Dossier. Isikoff’s Yahoo article (from information leaked by Steele) was used as one of the confirmation sources in the FISA Warrant against Team Trump. Isikoff has also written a book about the Russian probe. His involvement on the left has elevated his status among MSM media. Who is Jamal Khashoggi? He comes from a wealthy Saudi family. His grandfather was personal physician to King Saud. He is the nephew of Adnan Khashoggi, a multi-billionaire, the world’s greatest illegal arms dealer, who was involved in Iran Contra. He is also the cousin of Dodi Fayed, who was dating Princess Diana when they were both killed in a car crash in Paris. Personally, Jamal Khashoggi is a writer, pundit of the Middle East, and no fan of Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS), the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, who wants to modernize Saudi Arabia. MBS recently came to power in Saudi, and many factions sought to wrestle control of the country. Who can forget the Saudi purge of enemies, when they were all imprisoned at the Ritz Carlton? Who is Khaled Saffuri and why is Saffuri trying to steer the culpability to the Saudi’s, specifically, the young Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS) for the disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi? Why is the MSM claiming the ‘murder’ of Khashoggi was ordered by MBS? Grab a cup of coffee and sit back. Khaled Saffuri has been a major player in Mid-East politics for 30 years. Saffuri was deputy to Abdurahman Alamoudi on an off, for 20 years, connected to multiple terrorists, and always seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.  * Alamoudi started the American Muslim Council (AMC). * Alamoudi accepted $1,000,000 from Gaddafi of Libya to recruit dissident Saudis, disgruntled Islam members in London, to assassinate Crown Prince Abdullah (who later became king) of Saudi Arabia on US soil. Alamoudi was sentenced to 23yrs in US Federal Prison. (article linked below). * Alamoudi was a fundraiser for Al-Qaeda (WaPost). * Alamoudi was a registered lobbyist to the Bush Administration on behalf of Gaddafi of Libya (copy of form enclosed). * Alamoudi also developed the Muslim Chaplain program from the US Pentagon during the W Bush Administration (article linked below). * Alamoudi funded and helped Saffuri START the Islamic Free Market Institute in the USA (checks enclosed in the thread at the bottom) in 1999. * Saffuri also received money from the Qatari’s, arch enemy of the House of Saud (article linked). * Alamoudi and Saffuri met with CANDIDATE George W. Bush and Karl Rove, in 2000 (pic included below). * Alamoudi and Saffuri arranged the first IFTAR dinner in the White House at the behest of Saffuri’s best buddy — Hillary Clinton (pics included below). Kenneth Timmerman did an extensive article on Saffuri’s ties to terrorism. (article reprinted below – highly recommended for background). If we read the article, we learn: * Saffuri has contributed to both GOP and DEM candidates. * Saffuri intervened and tried to steer Bill Clinton to be involved in Bosnia, through a PAC, which was run by Alamoudi, with Saffuri as Treasurer. * Saffuri has taken many Congressmen on trips to the Middle East. * Saffuri is also close to Sami al-Arian, who was arrested in 2003 for raising money for Palestinian terrorists who killed Americans. * Saffuri and Alamoudi worked with al-Arian all throughout the 1990’s to stop the USA Immigration Naturalization Service from deporting Palestinian Jihad Members. * Saffuri’s primary objective was to get W.Bush, then President, to agree NOT to use secret information, obtained by our intel, for use in deportation hearings — which was a position adopted by Bush in his final debate with Al Gore. After 9/11, Bush reversed his position. * Saffuri is also close to Barzingi, an Iraqi, with a network of investment companies, financed by wealthy Saudis. Again, the ‘bad’ Saudis, intent on radical terror, which Mohammed Bin Salman, the new Crown Prince, has been fighting so hard. * Back in the early 2000’s, the US Government had a task force to fight Barzingi and his network of companies. One by one, the US Treasury blacklisted each company for supporting Al-Qaeda.  * Barzingi’s office was raided in March of 2002 and Alamoudi’s office was also raided at the same time, as part of the same investigation.   * Alamoudi was an aide to Barzingi in the early 90’s, yet Saffuri knew Barzingi since 1988. * George Bush, Sr. met with Barzingi and Alamoudi in 1990 and 1991….. and they advised Bush, Sr., on how to deal with Iraq. * No kidding. The PAC ran from 1993-1998 but the arrests came mostly during the W. Bush Administration. Note that while the PAC ended in 1998, Saffuri’s “Institute” started in 1999, with funding from Alamoudi. Hey, this is interesting….., Saffuri claims his donors to the PAC were doing good work, according to Timmerman’s piece (enclosed). One donor was working with the Dept of Homeland Security, another was a USAid worker. ====================== Then, the bombshell,….., In the final paragraphs of Timmerman’s article on Saffuri’s ties to terrorism, where connections to another 6 other terrorists are included, a familiar name appears…….,  * Glen Simpson, who was then working for the WSJ, who now heads Fusion GPS, who created the dirty Russia Dossier, is referenced.   * Glen Simpson asked Karl Rove if Saffuri was exerting too much influence on the W Bush White House.   * Karl Rove replied, “No.” Why is it always the same people involved? Here, in one story, we have Isikoff of Yahoo, WaPost (with mysterious connections to Mueller, and Glen Simpson), being fed a story, by a nefarious Saffuri, to attack/accuse/frame the young Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS), in the death/disappearance of Jamal Khashoggi, the alleged WaPost journalist.                 . And are we surprised, suddenly, this story is at the forefront of every journalist in DC/NYC?  Does this SOUND familiar to you? Like the Russian collusion narrative?  Being spun into the mainstream while we watch?  When Glen Simpson said yesterday, he would plead the 5th if called to testify about the Dossier/Bruce Ohr conflicting testimony?  Are we watching the death of “Muh Russia” and the beginning of “Muh Saudi”?  And this is happening while MBS is trying to weed out the radical Princes and dirty money in his kingdom = read as Saudi Deep State. While MBS is a close friend to the Trump Administration and they are BOTH weeding out Deep State? Are you smelling a rat? But wait, it gets better. In July, 2004, the Washington Post reported (article enclosed) on the arrest/sentencing of Alamoudi and they KNEW about Saffuri’s ties to the entire nest of terror. Why in the heck would WaPost consider Saffuri a reliable source, in 2018? The WaPost KNEW about Alamoudi’s plot to assassinate Prince (later King) Abdullah. They know the history and all the connections. Why Saffuri? And why in the heck would they hire Khashoggi? Something is rotten in Doha, Medina, and DC.        . https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1050781389489152000.html
