interesting French article lejdd.fr/International/… on Khashoggi's close association with Saudi Prince Turki al-Faisal and Nawaf Obaid. Obaid funded Mifsud in 2017 (AFTER FBI interview in Feb 2017)
al-bab.com/blog/2018/03/s…
2/ Khashoggi and Nawaf Obaid (Mifsud's pal) were joint authors of Sep 8, 2013 NYT anti-Assad op ed
nytimes.com/2013/09/09/opi…
3/ Khashoggi and Obaid both interviewed for this 2004 article in WaPo
washingtonpost.com/archive/politi…
4/ Tarek Obaid said to be involved in huge Malaysian 1MDB fraud
letemps.ch/suisse/tarek-o…
5/ in Wikileaks' Stratfor files, on 2011-10-05, Khashoggi attended meeting in Istanbul "as a replacement for Nawaf Obeid, an advisor to Saudi Prince Turki
al Faisal" wikileaks.org/gifiles/docs/2…
6/ many mentions of Mifsud's friend and patron, Nawaf Obaid (in turn, protege of Prince Turki al-Faisal), in Wikileaks' Stratfor files
search.wikileaks.org/?query=nawaf+o…
7/ 2006 commentary on Nawaf Obaid op ed in Wa Po
islamicpluralism.org/156/the-curiou…
8/ in 2006 article, Obaid warned that US troop withdrawals from Iraq would result in Saudi financing and arming Sunni insurgency. In retrospect, presages Saudi and Gulf state support for ISIS, AlQaeda and other jihadists in Iraq and Syria
washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content…
9/ Khashoggi and Mifsud's pal Obaid wrote for CNN in Sep 2013
linkis.com/blogs.cnn.com/…
10/ in 1999, Obaid wrote insightful article on Saudi Arabia-US policy. Observes Saudi support for Taliban and that Taliban hosted Osama bin Laden, then already connected to anti-US attacks, including Khobar Towers.
meforum.org/articles/other…
11/ in June 2001, Comey and Mueller, at behest of Saudi government, absurdly indicted Shia Hezbollah for Khobar Towers bombing instead of obvious culprit: Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda, a false attribution that lingers on in US blame of Iran, not Saudi, as sponsor of terrorism
12/ v interesting 2016 article on Nawaf Obaid, Tarek Obaid and huge Malaysian scandal (1MDB). Bribes to Malaysian PM Najib Razak. Mentioned: Jho Low, Prince Turki, ex-APCO Paul Stadlen,

sarawakreport.org/2016/02/donor-…
13/ story on 1MDB scandal centering on Tarek Obaid, who sponsored new institution employing Mifsud in May 2017
theguardian.com/world/2016/jul…
14/ Tony Blair on payroll of crooked Saudi company
theguardian.com/politics/2016/…
15/ sarawakreport.org/2018/03/swiss-…
16/ Alexander Downer, Papadop's "buddy", wrote interesting and professional article on Saudi beef with Khashoggi. Says that he was "player", allied with Muslim Brotherhood, opposed to reforms. Is that also true of Mifsud's patron Nawaf Obaid (Khash pal)? afr.com/opinion/column…
17/ Prince Turki al-Faisal, patron of Nawaf Obaid (who employed Mifsud), is in news today: 9/11 hijacker Moussaui says that Turki al-Faisal was involved in 9/11 financing. No reason to "believe" Moussaui without corroboration, but disquietingly plausible
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2…
18/ Moussaui allegation about (Mifsud and Obaid patron) Prince Turki al-Faisal (and also Prince Bandar bin Salman) in connection with 9/11 financing previously reported in 2015:
cnn.com/2015/02/03/pol…
19/ "Leaked information from the redacted portion of the 9/11 Commission Report states that two of the 9/11 hijackers received $130,000 in payment from Bandar's checking account".
Why is this still redacted?

wikiwand.com/en/Bandar_bin_…
20/ nypost.com/2016/04/17/how…
21/ interesting article here studiastrategiczne.amu.edu.pl/wp-content/upl…

Turki al-Faisal said that one of ways that Saudi "helped" US was by "training and funding" jihadists in Syria ("anti-Assad rebels"). Contradicting US pretense that Saudi/Gulf support for jihadists was their own doing.

@2xwide_dreaming @dr_davidsmith @wakeywakey16 @Larry_Beech @taleof2servers In that post, I mentioned an "Easter egg". I explained the Easter egg in a follow-up post climateaudit.org/2018/03/24/att…. There was an apparent infrastructure link between the Lurk banking gang and the spearphishing campaign attributed to APT28 (Fancy Bear) by SecureWorks.
@2xwide_dreaming @dr_davidsmith @wakeywakey16 @Larry_Beech @taleof2servers registrant of googlesetting[.com] domain used in the 2015 spearphishing campaign analysed by SecureWorks (June 26, 2016) is andre_roy@mail.com, also registrant for numerous domains in Oct 2014 PWC inventory pwc.blogs.com/files/tactical… of APT28 domains. Connecting spearphish to APT28.
@2xwide_dreaming @dr_davidsmith @wakeywakey16 @Larry_Beech @taleof2servers 2/ registrant of accoounts-google[.com, other domain used in 2015 spearphishing campaign, is "Gennadiy Borisov" with email yingw90@yahoo.com, used in scores of crimeware domains associated with Lurk's Angler exploit kit.

1/ the number of "coincidences" in Russiagate never cease to amaze. In this thread, I'll discuss a surprising link between analysis of the 2015-2016 spearphishing campaign(which caught Podesta and others) and Ukrainian InformNapalm operatives. Precise meaning unclear
@Stranahan
2/ on June 16, 2016, the day after Crowdstrike's reveal article, SecureWorks secureworks.com/research/threa… reported tht they had been using bitly links to monitor a spearphishing campaign, which, between mid-March and mid-May had targeted both hillaryclinton.com and gmail accounts
3/ in a second article secureworks.com/research/threa… on June 26, 2016, SecureWorks described the techniques of the spearphishing campaign, providing several intriguing examples.

1/ I'm following #manbij for news on Syria in wake of US departure announcement. Manbij is flashpoint. It's to east of Aleppo, west of Euphrates. It's held by SDF (Kurds). US still present. Turkey told Trump that they would deal with remnant ISIS. In very south far from Manbij.
2/ In fact, Turkey's objective seems to be to subjugate "PKK terrorists" i.e. the Kurdish militias employed by US (under alias SDF). To do so, they are deploying thousands of jihadis, presently mobilized north of Manbij.
yenisafak.com/en/news/nearly…
3/ many of the jihadis mobilized by Turkey appear to have previously identified as AlQaeda allies, AlQaeda and even ISIS. The logical force to deal with ISIS in south Syria is Syrian government. Which US has long prevented from crossing Euphrates to do so.

@ilb_ @UN the international response to the murder of Mr. Khashoggi marks the hollowness of the universal declaration of human rights. Sitting at an event tonight put on in his memory, I couldn't help but cringe while listening to the 30 articles read aloud. They are meaningless
If no country is willing to uphold the values contained within. It's business as usual between the Saudis and signatories of the UDHR. What do these words do for people whose rights are being violated - whose lives are being taken from them? We need real protections
And systems in place to make sure these things no longer happen, and that culpable governments are held accountable, not fairy tales to make us feel better about being human. #Khashoggi #journalism #memorial #realtalk #FreePress #Saudi #usa #Canada

1) President Trump does politics.
I have to get to the truth.

Orange juice evening thread, #JamalKhashoggi
October 23, 2018.
2) This Khashoggi thing has become important for another reason.

I am here to get to the truth - I don't want a Deep State secretly running our lives.

That means: Not here to defend Trump - defend the government - defend the Jewish people or Israel - sell books.

No.
3) I am also not here to explain Trump - explain the government - explain the Jewish people or Israel - explain my motives.

If you don't want to read my stuff, that's fine.

I don’t like to spread Fake News
This story is from an anonymous source, which makes it suspect

IF it’s true that (bizarrely there is an audio recording) of Jamal Khashoggi being killed, and if it is genuine, this is v bad.

BUT: Who would audio this???🤨 middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive…
Does anyone know who is behind MiddleEastEye?
It’s “About” page reads like a front.

This article quotes an anonymous source, claiming that (for some bizarre reason) an audio exists of Khashoggi being killed.🤨

Obviously, audiotapes can be faked.
Don’t assume this is true.
Many elephant in the room questions remain about Khashoggi: (who has a history of being a liason between Osama bin Laden and Saudi elites, and who worked with Saudi and US Intelligence in Afghanistan)

1. Why is there so much political noise over him?

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.
