MBS he order the killing 100%. Jamal Khashoggi. He is a human and journalist. Butchered inside the Saudi Arabia Consulate in Turkey. Jamal Khashoggi did not deserved to die like that. Nobody should be murdered. What happened to him was horrible and inhumane. Never the less, Interesting documentary about the life of Jamal Khashoggi, although his murder is only mentioned at the end of the movie. However, it is a good supplement to another documentary focussing on that murder. What constitutes a tragedy? It is written that tragic figures ultimately play a role in their demise often referred to as the tragic flaw and sadly Jamal was a tragic victim of being naïve enough to not recognize the danger before him. He forgot the cardinal rule of "once you get out, stay out." There are no games here and no scruples. There are no morals involved or a sense of what is good. Jamal's tragic flaw was that he allowed his naivety to cloud his judgment. He did so when he embraced the cause of Usama bin Laden. He did so when embraced the invasion of Iraq. There are consequences when one plays against the rules of life. "You live by the sword, you die by the sword" is not often quoted for nothing. Saudi Arabia's culture does not advocate for human rights or human worth other than those that are compliant and subservient.

My first clue should have been Ben Rhodes speaking on policy, and his 'criticism' of Trump, when he was part of an administration that wooed and coddled the Saudis for eight years. Obama had almost an entire decade to fix the landscape and do nothing but usher in the Arab Spring and leave those in the line of fire dangling in the wind.

Supposing that just because someone has foreign policy expertise because he made the coffee runs for a president is laughable, and Rhodes is the ultimate hypocrite- look no further than the tarmac to which pallets of cash were sent to Iran that he had a large part in organizing, along with his boss, ketchup king John Kerry, and the likes of a few select others.

How anyone takes the most vile person on the planet (Brennan) as anything other than a lecherous traitor and bad faith deep state actor is stunning. If you want a who's who of despicable and demonic DC insiders, look no further than this documentary. I was surprised not to see appearances from Jim Comey and Nancy Pelosi.

It's a tragic turn that has befallen the current climate of journalists, and I fear that it has become a bell that won't ever be unrung- even Wright, whose work I have respected, seems to have become part of the cabal of journalists that no longer value truth and the facts as they've transpired. Jamal had the courage of his convictions, except he left one of his ex wives and his children to suffer the wrath of the Saudi royal family, while making his own escape to the US.

He was mired by a long history of infidelities, bad decisions, and was one of the most vocal supporters of his home country and regime, until suddenly his eyes opened, and at a time convenient for him, he let loose on tirade after tirade. I have to believe Jamal was well aware what the consequences would be, but chose to go forward anyway. This doc willfully chooses to ignore the many issues he had throughout his life, and instead elevate him to martyr status.

President Trump was the only president in almost a century not to drag us into a war, and was desperately trying to have al our troops home. Yet somehow, this tragedy lays at his feet, because according to Rhodes, it's his fault for not being more disgusted by the Saudis, yet his predecessor couldn't have laid out a more pristine red carpet at the feet of SA.

At what point do we finally begin to get the point across to our supposed mora betters in Hollywood and DC, that we're no longer interested in your interpretation of history, and prefer actual historical accuracy and journalists willing to be actual journalists THAT DO NOT PICK SIDES? Alex Gibbey seems bent on lecturing us all until he's out of a job, and I'm beginning to be perfectly fine with that.

I was deeply emotional watching 'Kingdom of Silence' which is about the assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

That made me want more of Director Rick Rowley so I did his '16 Shots', about an unjustified shooting by the police and consequent cover-up.

Although the settings of the two movies are polar opposite, the common thread between Saudi Arabia, the USA and many countries, including my South Africa, is the use of government force to hurt instead of protect us, the Public.
