    I doubt they intended to kill him.

    Hillary was NOT my candidate. I was a Republican until late 2002.
    But how do you explain her obvious delight in Arab spring and the empowerment of Islamic radicalists?

    What were the options? You think we should have put an occupation force on the ground in Libya to keep Gaddafi in power?

    Cia took him out because he was talking about an African gold backed currency, contrary to banker wishes.

    When did they kill columnist from an American paper back then?

    Writing a column for a notoriously partisan American newspaper does not elevate anyone's status, Brad.

    I note that the Social Justice brigade isn't wringing their hands over the fate of Meng Hongwei.

    good lord.
    I realize the murder was gruesome,but the generalized Saudi bashing ( saudi gov't had nothing to do with 9-11) completely misses the geo-politics of the region..
    I submit that Iran is the true malign power, with forces scattered all over Syria,Lebanon,and have virtually colonized Iraq.
    They are as bad as China is in the South China sea ( hegemons)..
    and don't forget our special relationship goes back to 1932 and FDR
