- raincom 8y agoVery good question. I heard that a Saudi consulate in DC asked him to go to Turkey. Khashoggi should not have gone to any Saudi consulate at all--of course, this is something one learns after the fact. But he should have known better that Saudi is not some random Western country.
- mandeepj 8y ago> I heard that a Saudi consulate in DC asked him to go to Turkey Thanks for answering my question. Seems like he fell into a trap.
- wodenokoto 8y agoGiven that he was a journalist and had his Iwatch recording, maybe he underestimated the severity of the situation, and simply expected to get a story about unfairness he would survive to tell.
- asdf1214 8y agoHave you seen President Trump's vehement support of Saudi Arabia and the crown prince MbS? If I were Kashoggi, i wouldnt go anywhere near the Saudi embassy in Washington DC.
