The british government won't be taking any hard hitting action even though they are paid to represent the people
Indeed, don't want to lose an arms contract so have to pretend the murder did not happen, pathetic.How do they get away with it?

It is connected to public drains, and it seems the Turks may have found things in them already... oops. Also I wonder where the Apple Watch’s last-posted location was?B17NNS said:
That building must have been riddled with CCTV.
Yes, but according to one report, they (the alleged murderers) removed all the hard drives, then the Saudis claimed the CCTV wasn't recording at the time.Penelope Stopit said:

In case you're thinking of pulling an Enduring Freedom on the place, imagine the fuss once bombs start falling on Mecca or Medina.

Hopefully (for the investigation) he was wearing a current model within range of his phone. Phone was with his fiancée who waited outside.https://www.wired.com/story/jamal-khashoggis-apple...
It’s interesting that the constant bombing of innocent civilians in Yemen over several years doesn’t really have any consequences for Saudi Arabia yet one well connected dissident journalist gets murdered and all hell breaks loose. War crimes = meh, one dead journalist = OMFGZ. What a strange world we live in.

The MSM create most of the news and the fate of journalists is one of their principal concerns. BlackLabel said:

Without doubt somebody has been exceptionally stupid within the Saudi regime. Heads will roll I suspect within the security services. Un-authorised operations, somebody misunderstood instructions, blah, blah, blah. Then business as usual.
Thinking about it further & after the Salisbury affair it's evident talent in the hit-man world is thin on the ground!! Whilst incompetence is high.
