I anticipate more Saudi chaos to occur. They know they have a geopolitical stranglehold over a large number of countries for oil needs.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-45775819Fears are growing over missing Washington Post writer Jamal Khashoggi, after Turkish officials said they believe he has been murdered.
Mr Khashoggi, a Saudi national, went missing after visiting the Saudi consulate in Istanbul on Tuesday.
A Turkish official told the BBC that initial investigations indicated he was murdered there.
Saudi Arabia has denied the accusations, saying it is "working to search for him".
The Washington Post said it would be a "monstrous and unfathomable act" if he had been killed.
The BBC's Istanbul correspondent, Mark Lowen, said it would plunge Turkish-Saudi relations into an unprecedented crisis.
Turkish officials have opened an investigation and have been speaking to the media on condition of anonymity.
They have not given any evidence for their claim, nor suggested how he might have been killed.
The forces of tyranny are getting bolder, see also the disappearance of the head of Interpol in China. If Turkey's allegations do prove to be true, and the Saudi response does seem to suggest they have kidnapped him at the very least, then I ask once again if these are the sort of people Western democracies should be involved with. I think not.

Are you saying the King ordered this?
The killing was a royal command?

*** Warning for trolling ***. Gloating over the death of a journalist and suggesting he deserved to die due to the company he worked for is far beyond the line.

He was Saudi Arabian, for a start.
He went to the Saudi embassy in Turkey, in order to officialise his divorce and nullify his Saudi marriage, so that he could remarry.
