villakram Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Well two senators have now directly named MBS (tm) as ordering the hit. The empire is not pleased. I would stay away from balconies and bathtubs were I MBS (tm). He must know this though, so I wonder what distraction he'll cook up (i) Bomb Iranian allies in Iraq... maybe, (ii) bomb Iran directly... very unlikely, (iii) Syrian shenanigans... less maybe, (iv) enhanced beating until Yemeni moral improves... more likely, and (v) a coup... enticing.

Sorry, for the assumed knowledge... media over here are a joke and have practically turned him into a brand ala Kanye or some such. But he's heading for the naughty chair now with the "Davos in the desert" meeting looking like it's done (no big $$$ == very big problems) and nobody liking the very gradual but increasing awareness of what is going on in Yemen.

sne Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Trump has tweeted that he has spoken with MBS who assured him he knew nothing about what happened, and he was with with Mike Pompeo, so... Guess it's time we forgot this and moved on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ambition, arrogance, vanity and greed have far outrun his political savvy. He'll be impaled on a very sharp thing before too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterms Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 Ooh, it's started quicker than I expected. But on this video of the senator's attack on MBS, look at his jacket and trousers. What was he thinking? Is he colourblind? Did he wake up in two different beds this morning and just grabbed what was to hand in each location? Has someone spilt paint over his trousers and he's had to borrow an unmatching pair from an intern? Just what the hell is going on here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Trump compares the condemnation of Saudi over the death of this journo to the Kavanaugh situation and bemoans ‘guilty until proven innocent’ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villakram Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Latest is that the Journo was cut up with a bonesaw while still breathing. He may have been unconcious and remained so until death, this is unclear at the current time. The guy who did the deed put on headphones to listen to music during the process and recommended that the others in the room do the same. No word on what they listened to at the current time. Wonderful bunch of lads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted October 17, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 17, 2018 Supposedly the entire embassy was repainted after the 'disappearance' and then thoroughly cleaned. You'd like to think there'd be repercussions for this but hahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
