JAMAL KHASHOGGI (SAUDI ARABIA)
Representing Saudi Arabia, Jamal Khashoggi is a Saudi journalist,

Perhaps the most famous incident of the firing of a
prominent editor for going over the red line, was the
dismissal of Jamal Khashoggi, then editor-in-chief of
Al-Watan, on May 27, 2003. Allegedly, the SAG had Khashoggi
fired because Khashoggi had criticized thirteenth and
fourteenth century Hanbali jurist and favorite of Wahhabis,
Ibn Tamiyya. Khashoggi had blamed Ibn Tamiyya's fatwa, that
said it was permissible to kill Muslims if they stood in the
way of killing infidels, for encouraging extremism and
terrorism. At that time, Khashoggi was reacting to the 2003
bombings of three Western compounds in Riyadh. By the time
of his firing Khashoggi had made many powerful enemies
through his comments, notably the CPVPV, religious leaders,
and conservatives.

Jamal Khashoggi sits in his office in the Kingdom Tower, 300 meters (about
1,000 feet) above a city that stretches to a hazy horizon. "The absolute
monarchy is obsolete," says Khashoggi. "Democracy is the only solution."
Others in Saudi Arabia would be interrogated and locked up for such words.
Khashoggi, one of the country's most outspoken intellectuals, is wearing a
snow-white shirt that reaches to the floor, known as the thaub, and a
black cord keeps his head scarf in place. It's the standard work attire of
Saudi Arabian businessmen.
The former reporter was a good friend of former Al-Qaida leader Osama bin
Laden, whom he knew as a young man in the 1980s, during the war in
Afghanistan. He often visited him in the caves of Tora Bora and most
recently met him in Sudan in 1995.
At the same time, Khashoggi is seen as one of the most progressive
thinkers in the country. He is building a television network modeled after
Al-Jazeera for Prince Waleed Bin Talal, a billionaire and a reformer
within the royal family.
Saudi Arabia is a land of contradictions. Some of the things that are
thought and expressed there would sound absurd, even outrageous, if voiced
in the West. To this day, many in Saudi Arabia believe that bin Laden did
not attack the Twin Towers in New York. "Of course it was him," says
Khashoggi.
He confesses that he had long shared bin Laden's view that there are only
two ways to liberate the Arab world of its corrupt regimes: by
infiltrating the political system through its institutions, or by
violently overthrowing the depraved ruling cliques. Democracy "was not an
option at the time," says Khashoggi.

ACCORDING TO JAMAL KHASHOGGI, AN ISLAMIC MOVEMENT SPECIALIST FOR
"AL HAYAT" NEWSPAPER, FEW PEOPLE IN JEDDAH DISLIKE USAMA, AND
SOME CONTINUE TO SUPPORT HIM BECAUSE THEY ARE FED UP WITH THE
AMERICAN PRESENCE/POLICY IN THE REGION. KHASHOGGI SAID THAT MANY
PEOPLE CONSIDER USAMA BIN LADIN AS THE "CHE GUEVARA" OF THE ARAB
WORLD. HE SAID THAT SOME HOPE THAT USAMA WILL DIE IN BATTLE SO
THAT PEOPLE WILL NOT HAVE TO SUFFER THE "HUMILIATION" OF SEEING
HIM TRANSPORTED IN HANDCUFFS TO THE U.S.

Most prominent among them was Al-Watan Editor-in-chief
Jamal Khashoggi, who wrote that Al-Shithri owed his position
to King Abdullah and therefore should not publicly speak
against the King's university. Khashoggi fulminated that
such statements were "what Al-Qaida awaits as a pretext and
justification for its actions."
This is just a preview, between Jamal and Adnan there are tons. Happy digging https://search.wikileaks.org/advanced?q=khashoggi

Great research. It's become obvious that he has nothing to do with us and we should stay out it.

Prince Waleed Bin Talal had been arrested as part of the ongoing "reform". It appears that Khashoggi was a protege of the Prince. The MSM touts his WaPo affiliation, but the Bin Talal connection has remained obscured. Could Khashoggi have been killed for trying to undermine the SA reform effort?

That was what we thought, too
