WaPo: Saudi crown prince described slain journalist as a dangerous Islamist in call with White House (Paywall)
Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman described slain journalist Jamal Khashoggi as a dangerous Islamist days after his disappearance in a phone call with President Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and national security adviser John Bolton, according to people familiar with the discussion.
Soon as I’m done with the phone call to Jared,
I’ll go online and buy stuff from Harrods.
Something that’s nice, something that’s choice
something to go with another Rolls Royce.
I think it’ll be an interesting twist:
calling Khashoggi an Islamist.
Though his murder was, I think now, a mistake,
Jared is always so easy to fake.
Unlike my dad, who in his senility,
is starting to question my culpability.
He asked just now, and it made me wince,
“Who the hell taught you to act like a prince?”
“I said a hundred times — or was it once? —
I need a Royal Prince, not a Royal Dunce!
Why can't you be more like that nice boy Jared?
Sometimes Oy vish vas ha Joo Oy had married!”
