But the man worked for a US newspaper, the Washington Post, lived in Virginia, and had a US Green Card. So the US should have an interest.

@nicknotes Why? He wasn't a US citizen and he wasn't killed in US soil neither conducting government/diplomatic/official bussines, was he?

@TheAstroChuck I hear you and we can be all outraged we want, the truth of the matter this is still a foreign issue. I guess that's what troubles me with this story. A lot of bitching about US intervention worldwide all the freaking time and now there are people blood thirsty on why the US don't jump on it. Can't have it both ways people.

@IamNobody They are only bitching because Trump is involved .If Obama was the President there would be far less bitching

@richiegtt good thing this is not a popularity contest and certainly you and I not going to win it but man, I agree one freaking hundred percent with your comment. This is not our (US) problem and the media discourse keeps pushing whatever they can to make the administration look bad only because midterm is just around the corner.

@TheAstroChuck I am not saying it is acceptable. I am saying it is not a US problem.

@TheAstroChuck "The man behind two kids, who are US citizens"...... You lost me, what? On the other hand, self-centered...to certain extent, aren't we all? But wait, this isn't about me, is it?

@TheAstroChuck OK, I understand. Still a citizen of country A killed in country B by his own people.

He worked as a reporter for the Washington post. He lived in Virginia and had a Green Card. Aren't those reasons enough to act against his murderers? @IamNobody

@nicknotes if he was working on behalf of the US government then yes. That is not the case. Does every Green Card holder that has been killed as a tourist somewhere else been investigated? If the answer is a categoric yes then Jamal Khashoggi should be no different but, is that the case?

@nicknotes I am not saying he wasn't and it's unfortunate what happened to him. My only stand is against the media frenzy to blow things out of proportion. I have read here other postings saying Trump is now putting journalist in danger. That's not just a ridiculous statement but an irresponsible thing to say. Smearing this guy legacy with our current state of events add salt to the wound. I am pretty sure Trump didn't send him to Turkey.

I think reporting the news for a US newspaper is Government business.@IamNobody

@nicknotes C'mon....seriously?
