Erdogan and Turkey have been paid off.

He was tortured and they have audio proof.

Err

Suddenly he was strangled on entering the Embassy and then chopped up.

So that’s ok then. 🙄

Astonishing.

The problem is, the Saudi Consulate is actually Saudi territory, so they don't actually have powers in international law to investigate it or deal with any identified perpetrators. The most they can do is expel Saudi diplomats or break off diplomatic relations entirely.

Now they have explained his body was vaporised in acid they have covered up all the outstanding issues. Except as sure as anything that's a lie.

Mind you he was apparently an islamic terrorist which is more that a bit rich because he fooled the CIA on that.

THE BBC are reporting all this as FACT!

Just amazing stuff.

How has the BBC reported it as fact?

Headline: Khashoggi murder: Body 'dissolved in acid' (reported speech)
First sentence:
"A top Turkish official, presidential adviser Yasin Aktay, has said he believes Jamal Khashoggi's body was dissolved in acid after being cut up."

True.
But there is no journalistic comment or questioning what they have reported.
No suggestion that the BBC feel the claims are ridiculous.

So the absence of the BBC's "feelings" on the subject mean that they are reporting it as fact?

So basically, the Saudis have committed a murder in cold blood, and that’s it. No more to be said or done about it?
