    Default Mike Pompeo criticizes journalist Jamal Khashoggi as an 'activist' who received too

    Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo sharply criticizes murdered Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi in his new book, questioning his journalism credentials and lambasting what he calls the media’s sympathetic coverage of his brutal killing in Saudi Arabia.

    “If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”

    — Golda Meir

    Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.


    “If Hamas put down their weapons, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there would be no Israel."

    I love how at first they said a rumble broke B out between Kashogi and the people who killed him


    One person doesn’t have a rumble with several people

    Good except he was killed in the United States, a "stone's throw" from the WH. He was a brilliant guy who risked his life and paid with it for not sucking up to Saudi tyranny. Pompeo is a gnat by comparison.

    No need to kill anybody. Just handle them like Trump.

    Kashoggi was a Saudi citizen, not an American. His father was the Saudi king's doctor. K was part of the royal family inner circle.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    trump may think he is the worst treated leader... ever... But the rest of humanity realizes he has lived quite a lucky life. Many would argue he did nothing to deserve his luck.
