Then why did they kill him? If he was part of the liberal establishment media then he should have been pro-US/Saudi imperialism.
Lucas Sanders
Personal animus between him and MBS.

Firstly, you have Turkey itself ensuring that information hits mass-media. This means that people will listen.
Secondly, Turkey is not dumping everything in one go, but delivering in small bites. This ensures that story is not washed away from public consciousness by new events, but stays in focus and keeps drawing more attention (and then necessity to respond - which also helps to keep story alive).
Thirdly, unlike in previous episodes, US is either unable or unwilling to keep Saudi royals (who are - to put it mildly - fucking animals) from being shamed in public. So now Saudis are also getting what was long overdue.
Finally, you are not supposed to dismember people in the embassies (especially if they willingly walked in; at the very least, you have to kidnap them). This doesn't have as much to do with laws or morality, as with the fact that ruling class traditionally considers embassies as their neutral ground (safe spaces, if you wish). But Saudis demonstrated to everyone that their safe space is decidedly unsafe. Hence the international elite takes it personally: Saudis are infringing upon traditions that support the absolute right of ruling class to be safe.
Against peons nobody gives a fuck about. None of big wigs could be affected by this.

Why would the bother building concentration camps when they can just deny entry in the first place? Do you realize how stupid you sound?
Juan Robinson
Watch the speech yourself, dumb ass. They're building tent-cities for a reason

I don't disagree, but there are 4 things happening.
1) Turkey slow leaking morbid details to keep it in the news and punish Saudi Arabia.
2) He was an American journalist, and this is also a method of how Americans exert exceptionalism. (i.e. look at this brutish country using assassination politics)
3) The West is pressuring SA for reforms, and are becoming less reliant on them.
4) It's a method of undermining Trump and Jared Kushner.
Ian Perry
That was from Trump's speech. That user wasn't making it up. If anyone sounds stupid it's that President they have in America.
