You are remarkably stupid. It's a big deal because we are the Saudi ally in the middle East. We aren't military allies with Russia.
Seriously, your stupid posts reek of crazy stupid uncle.

You are referring to, what, drone strikes against militants and equating that to executing a journalist? Are you serious?
Executing freedom fighters in another country? Yes its murder by a foreign country. Not better than Al quaida terrorists. Also it hits women and children regularly

Would you like a list of all the countries the US has invaded over the past century and the accompanying death tolls?
As for the OP I guess the thousands of Yemenis that have been slaughtered don't count?
Oh and oops- the billions in weapons sales to Saudi's over the years that the US elites make a fortune on?
The level of historical knowledge on this forum is abysmal.

I've seriously been confused by the outrage. I think to myself, "How do you think despots stay in power in the year 2018?"
Is it because the guy killed himself often wrote as a journalist? I was thinking that but haven given it some more thought I think it's more because of the bold way it was done - in another country - combined with the fact that the guy was a known journalist of sorts.
What explains it?

Are you actually serious or being provocative? Do you actually get your news from the WaPo and consider yourself well-informed on matters of world politics?
As for how "despots" stay in power if you want to look around the world at present and certainly over the last 6 decades the vast majority of "despots" that are in and/or have been placed in power have maintained their grip on their peoples necks through vast amounts of military weaponry which in most cases has been supplied by the US and most of those despots have been installed by the US after duly elected governments were overthrown. The reason being rather straightforward- the protection of US "vital interests in the region" which when translated equates to US control of resources and contracts in the region which benefit large US corporations and Wall St. investors.

Yes this is outrageous coming from an ally. In defense of rojo, I read his original post mostly as a criticism of our collective lack of outrage for the scores of journalists that have been killed in the past years.

Not to mention pizzagate.
Why hasn't Trump locked her up yet? He promised us he would and clearly there's so many crimes she could be imprisoned for. An epic failure not to convict her.

No doubt Obama droned countless foreigners into the afterworld.

...
Are you really saying that deliberately killing a journalist is okay because the US has killed people in wars?

When you have an anti-press president who would prefer that he could lead in a totalitarian manner, the result is a president who never admonishes foreign governments for taking out targets. He wasn't upset about the spy poisoning in the UK and he wasn't upset about the Saudi King going after a guy. He would not get involved in these things if the press didn't question him about it.
Why did anyone have the chance to care about the UK poisoning? Because the UK and other European nations made a big deal of it. They elevated it so the world could talk about it.
Why did anyone get a chance to care about the Kashoggi think? Because Turkey was thrilled to have a chance to rat out Saudi Arabia on something, so they cried bloody murder.
I think the world is outraged by all of it so long as somebody cries afoul loudly enough that they hear about it. The UK poisoning thing and years of articles about violence against opposition candidates in Russia demonstrates that the world does care and that those things do make it into the news. Maybe you've become desensitized to it?
Or maybe you just think nobody cares because your president doesn't care.
We have an anti-president press.

Yeah, except that every time the Russians kill a journalist, it is a big deal and the US reacts with sanctions/etc. With Koshogi, Trump was forced into reaction and it was more dramatic because they are allies.

Funny how the U.S. took an isolationist, America-first approach to government prior to the creation of the Federal Reserve, under a Democrat. A few short years after its creation... WW1. We've consistently been at war ever since and are now hated around much of the World. Interesting how pretty much all of our major wars, prior to Iraq have been signed off on by Democrat presidents.
Nothing to see here, folks.
If Americans ever want to be free again:
#1 End the Fed
#2 Nuke Sillicon Valley and destroy all siren servers.
#3 Force AIPAC to register as a foreign lobby group

It’s hard to break the propaganda pushed to everyone’s phone daily so if I reach just one person it is worth it.
