WaPo: Saudi Crown Prince Told Kushner & Bolton Khashoggi Was a Terrorist

HeadlineNov 02, 2018

The Washington Post is reporting Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman tried to slander slain Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, falsely claiming the journalist was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood during a call with national security adviser John Bolton and White House senior adviser Jared Kushner in the days after Khashoggi’s disappearance. The Muslim Brotherhood is classified by Saudi Arabia as a terrorist organization. Khashoggi was not a formal member of the organization. Today marks one month since Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi walked into the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul and was assassinated.
