1. This was an act of war.

And if we had a competent president in charge, we'd be going after the Saudis hard. Unfortunately we don't.

[sunonmars]

4. a fight...bollocks, this was a preplanned murder and disposal.

[Initech]

5. Absolutely, hw knew too much.

[greatauntoftriplets]

2. This must be "the acceptable explanation" that CNN was reporting on yesterday.

A collaboration between the Saudis and Spanky-ists.

8. No doubt Orange McSpanky was involved in this somehow.

7. I think that the kingdom of SA is in deep deep dog doo...how could they do something like ...

this? Savages. Goes to prove that all of the money that one has does not make a better person.

What I'm interested in, is what role Jared K. have in this whole matter. He was just there prior to all of this crap happening. Kind of disconcerting eh? What kind of information did he pass along to the Saudi when he was there? This reeks and reeks to high heaven.

[Takket]

13. "Died after a fight"

Apparently the Saudi ‘s are learning from the stand your ground nut cases here that use that excuse to justify outright murder.

[joshcryer]

14. Died after a fight died while fighting them beheading him.

[Solly Mack]

15. What complete and utter bullshit.

"died after a fight"

Dismisses this person and that person as if that means anything at all.

[spanone]

16. Let's see if trump rubber stamps this explanation.

[Mendocino]

17. In other news

Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.

[dalton99a]

18. 1 unarmed man against 15 men with knives, guns, bone saw, tranquilizer, etc. lying in wait

[sunonmars]

19. and an expert pathologist...wonder why he was there.....

[babylonsister]

20. 18 v. 1, and a saw to chop him up. Fair fight there.

I suspect they're omitting some pertinent info.
