Just for info....Saudi Arabia has threatened to raise oil to $200 a barrel if the U.S. sanctions Saudi Arabia over the murder of the American Journalist in the Saudi Embassy in Turkey..........IF that happens gas will hit about $8.00 or more a gallon....it could easily crash the economy, markets, and dollar......We all know that at some point these things will happen.....this could be the hinge pin.....key word.....IF.......just saying wise men see evil coming and they prepare for it....

Note....Congress has said they WILL ACT if Saudi Arabia is guilty...

I have never thought that the US was hostage to Arab oil prices. We have our own oil, yet choose to import oil. In the long run, what does this mean? We are using up others oil and always have our oil to use when push comes to shove.

It all depends on if this situation merits going there.

The house of cards (US and world economy) is so fragile that it will not take much for it to crash.
Only a foolish man will not see this and be prepared.

S.A. doesnt control oil prices. OPEC can cut production if it chooses (SA is only one member of OPEC), but the price rise or drop is in the hands of the oil futures traders. A sharp cut in production would mean higher oil prices in the market but then they are helping the US oil industry because they will be raising US oil companies profits! That is why OPEC tried to lower the price of oil by not cutting production for a few years when they were trying to bankrupt the US oil industry. That strategy failed.

I was puzzled and had to google 'why kill Kashoogi?' - seems he's just a bit player in the opposition field of the Saudi leader. Looks like an abduction gone wrong...to be taken back to S.A. for a bit of 're-education'. Overkill to say the least - no pun intended.

The 'clean up' crew a la Pulp Fiction is a real mind bender tho.

The real question i have is why is the USA and the leader of the USA consuming their time and efforts with the disappearance and probable death of one Saudi journalist... ???

Do people have any idea how many journalists in this world have been "disappeared" over recent history? Thousands..

So whats going on here ?

Why is it justifiable to send your foreign minister Pompao ( not sure at the moment what title call your foreign minister) across the globe taking days to get there have discussions and to return when there are so many other international issues of far greater importance then the disappearance of one journalist..

Maybe he was about to spill on the Huma Abedin/Muslim Brotherhood connection and had to be silenced. Maybe Hillary got him. Just another of a long line of Arkancides.

YEAH...OK..........sure.

Things I am reading is that the guy was a Muslim Brotherhood member, so I gotta ask, "Isn't that a good thing he gone?"

Does anyone believe he died in a "fist fight"?........neither do I..........that comes no where near passing the smell test....
