        Great that they decided to withdraw. Bizarre that this is the straw that broke the camel's back when Saudi Arabia has been a notorious human rights violator that has severely restricted the press freedoms in its own country for years and is using American weapons to kill kids.

        15 seems to be their magic number: 15 Saudis sent to Turkey to kill Khashoggi, 15 Saudis sent to the US to kill Americans on 9/11

        Richard Engel reports Jamal Khashoggi sync’d his iWatch with his iPhone before going into the embassy bldg bc he thought something bad might happen hence the recordings the Turks were talking about. I hope there is footage.

        Yeah, you can't visit Mecca either for hajj unless you are Muslim and you need a permit. I don't know if there's appeal or not, it's just not allowed.

        I assume many Muslims are also deeply troubled and may take steps to protest in various ways.

        I've been thinking about that myself. Murder is against Islam, but voicing protest in an outside of KSA are two very different things. I have been waiting to hear from friends in Riyadh to see what the feeling is there. My guess is there is very restricted coverage.
