The (genocide-enabling) ‘NYT’ confesses that 1000s of slaughtered Yemenis were just too much to get our heads around
“How One Journalist’s Death Provoked a Backlash That Thousands Dead in Yemen Did Not.”
So the New York Times is making it all about the inability of well-intentioned Westerners including themselves to wrap their heads around large numbers of dead children. Except they had no difficulty doing this with Syria when Assad and Putin were bombing Syrian cities.

When Russia was accused of poisoning folks in Britain, sanctions and expulsion of diplomats from NATO member states took place. With Russia there was no direct proof or evidence, but Saudi Arabia has admitted the crime.
Maybe the world is gonna put the Saudi Prince in a Witness Protection Program and manufacture a new identity and background for the Clown?
The Russians are as poor as church mice and the Saudis are busting with dough. No double standard at work here, merely pragmatism.

Trump Administration Urges Saudis To Stick To Killing Random Yemeni Civilians
As criticism mounted over the country’s alleged role in the disappearance and possible death of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, the Trump administration reportedly urged the leaders of Saudi Arabia Friday to stick to killing random Yemeni civilians. “The potential murder of a high-profile journalist critical of their regime raises grave concerns for us, and we appeal to the leaders of Saudi Arabia to restrict their extrajudicial murders to Yemeni people who don’t have any public platform,” said President Trump, adding that the White House would not sit idly by as the Saudis caused the deaths of innocent people unless they were Yemeni children in a school bus or a group of Yemeni people attending a wedding. “The United States asks Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to content himself with killings that don’t affect business deals or call our diplomatic ties into question, such as airstrikes on Yemeni infrastructure, fueling mass cholera outbreaks, or blocking food and medical supplies from reaching civilians. Look, we don’t even mind if you dismember and murder people inside the Turkish consulate, as long as they’re unknown Yemenis whose deaths won’t cause an international scandal. For the sake of all parties, we demand that the Saudis only kill people who hardly anyone in America cares about.” At press time, several major U.S. newspapers had published editorials praising the Trump administration for its tough stance on Saudi Arabia.

Powerful article and precise measure of the u.s. moral compass, why let a few thousand kids lives stand in the way of a $140bil deal for the pentagon pocket so saudis can kill still more innocents.....n' they call iran evil.

Saudi prince was unaware of ��rogue operation�� behind Khashoggi death, foreign minister says


In an interview with Fox News, the kingdom's foreign minister denied that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman had any prior knowledge of an operation that resulted in the killing of Post contributing columnist Jamal Khashoggi. The Saudi account has been met with skepticism by European nations and U.S. lawmakers.
