But if our foreign policy has no moral basis anymore, what's the point of shoveling gobs and gobs of money into the military now? What's the point? What are we defending if its not the Democratic order in the world? The right to kill babies in the womb?

It's similar to the feeling I get when my wife, whom I've been with for decades, does something that makes me shake my head at how adorable she is even after all these years together. Only instead of being uplifting and romantic, it's tragic and face palm inducing. 2
Tiberius Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Quote "For the record, I have no financial interests in Saudi Arabia (or Russia, for that matter). Any suggestion that I have is just more FAKE NEWS (of which there is plenty)!" Quote the president tweeted. There it is, he does have financial interests there! He never tells the truth

Unfortunately, our U.S. 'media' will probably toss out a few ridiculous takes...............like this: Chris Hayes jumps ALL THE SHARKS with INSANE take on Saudis and Trump You know the face you make when you sniff the milk because you’re not sure if it’s still good or not and you can tell by the smell it’s not? Yup, just made that face. We know Chris Hayes has always been sort of out there for a long while but WTAF with this tweet? Did he really think implying the president would take bribes from the Saudis so they could murder his critics is even sane, let alone appropriate? Trump announced at a rally that he was taking massive bribes from the Saudis. Why bother to hide it?

Why bother to hide it? Source? Nevermind, I found it. It was a statement by Chris Hayes of MSNBC who made a baseless charge without evidence; tweeting: “Would be nice to definitively rule out that the Saudis are paying the president massive bribes in exchange for tacit approval for murdering critics!” You are so ***** stupid it hurts.

When a private person sells a property to another private person, that's a business transaction, not bribery. Interesting to note that particular quote was from mid-2015, when he was finishing up reducing his business interests in Saudi Arabia to almost nothing. Every report of Trump's "financial ties to Saudi Arabia" can't quote anything more recent than three years ago, save Saudi travelers not on government business staying in the NY Trump Hotel. And once again...if you apply consistently to others the standard to which you hold Trump, Clinton has much stronger financial ties to Kingdom. You won't, of course...on the basis of "That's different, so shut up!" 2

Being that stupid should hurt. Does it hurt?

It's the "Hide in Plain Sight" long game. Create a paper trail of legitimate business transactions, reported in great detail and scrutinized by regulatory agencies, with documentation accessible by all, all while shouting to the roof tops how successful a transaction it was. Btw, I watched an interview with Brennan and NBC news this morning and walked away thinking how odd the disappearance of this journalist seems given the political landscape. Every jamoke on the planet is aware of the presence of security cameras and high tech listening devices, yet the Saudi hit team was tracked from th le moment they landed in Turkey, to the moment they walked in the building, the moment they left the building with clear and obvious evidence Khasoggi never left? Brennan stated emphatically that the Saudi's murdered this poor guy, as the interviewers fawned over his experience and knowledge about "that part of the world". He included the obligatory reference to Trump being in their pocket, but also waxed philosophically about the need for continued relations with the country in spite of this event with breadcrumbs that even Hansel and Gretel could follow back to the Saudis. All the while, i kept wondering if NBC would ask him how tuned in he was to Intel given his recent loss of security clearance, but that apparently didn't occur to NBC. At a minimum, Brennan is a reckless, reckless man by stating emphatically that the Saudi's murdered Khasoggi, The End. 1

B-Man Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 Why are the media so interested in the Khashoggi death over so many other deaths? by Jack Hellner Original Article .
Koko78 Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Quote Pro-government Turkish daily Yeni Safak reported it had heard audio recordings of Khashoggi being tortured during an interrogation, having his fingers cut off and then being decapitated. It said al-Otaibi can be heard on one tape saying during Khashoggi's torture: "Do this outside. You are going to get me in trouble." The daily reported that in another tape, an unknown individual tells Otaibi: "If you want to live when you return to Saudi Arabia, be quiet!" https://www.yahoo.com/news/pompeo-arrives-talks-turkey-khashoggi-085919842.html Seems legit. Sort of like a professional hit squad being tracked from the moment they landed in Turkey until the moment they lifted off. Edited October 17, 2018 by Koko78 1
