Khashoggi Case: The Price Of Bin Salman’s Head

Well......for Trump it is business as usual. For many including in his administration it is not so. It is not business as usual with other nations . It is rather astonishing that the Trump regime keeps mailing exudes for him. ( the sadistic prince_) But then Trump has not met a ruthless dictator he didn't like even if said dictators laugh at him. and see him as someone they can manipulate.
 
Ghassan Kadi allows his own POV to enter the article thusly--

The biggest twist perhaps in the Khashoggi debacle is that the Saudis have always felt that they were entitled to the same level of impunity the West affords to itself. After all, this was how Al-Saud got away with persecuting dissent, imposing undemocratic laws, and exporting Wahhabi ideology and the terror acts that come with it. Needless to mention the biggest human tragedy of them all; inflicting war crimes in Yemen, killing tens of thousands and inflicting starvation and disease upon millions others.

What "impunity" are Americans supposed to have these days? I don't doubt for a moment that all sorts of #$%% goes on both at home and abroad on the Q.T. But any time the #$%% hits the fan (the fan being the media), the tendency of Western society has always been to correct said abuses, not to simply tolerate them. That doesn't mean that every injustice gets properly corrected. But we, unlike some regimes I could name, certainly don't just shrug our collective shoulders and say, "Not our lookout."
