I came here to say the same thing. Bezos pointed at the Saudis directly in his Medium post.
It probably started with WaPo looking into the Kashoggi murder on their own, but this mystery AMI magazine promoting MBS is another point on the trail. Bezos is probably really close to getting all of AMI indicted on treason charges and that's the value being exchanged in a possible extortion charge.
- gamblor956 8y agoreally close to getting all of AMI indicted on treason charges and that's the value being exchanged in a possible extortion charge AMI can't be indicted on treason charges for two reasons: (1) it's not illegal to do business with the Saudis, who are technically our allies despite having funded 9/11, Al Qaeda, and numerous other terrorist groups worldwide, and (2) treason requires us to be in a declared state of war with Saudi Arabia, which we are not. There are other potential charges that might be at play but unfortunately treason isn't one of them.
