Evidence suggests crown prince ordered Khashoggi killing, says ex-MI6 chief | The Guardian |

A former head of MI6 has said all the evidence suggests Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was behind the death of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi, and that the theory that rogue elements in the Saudi military were responsible was "blatant fiction".

Sir John Sawers told the BBC his assessment was based on conversations with senior Whitehall sources and his knowledge of the Turkish intelligence services.

Sawers, who was head of the British secret intelligence service until 2014, also claimed that the crown prince would only have acted if he believed he had licence from the White House to behave as he wished.

"I think President Trump and his ministerial team are waking up to just how dangerous it is to have people acting with a sense that they have impunity in their relationship with the United States," Sawers said.

"If it is proven, and it looks very likely to be the case, that [Prince Mohammed] ordered the killing of the journalist it is a step too far - one that the UK, the EU and the US are going to have to respond to."

UK warns of 'consequences´ if missing Saudi journalist was murdered

The British are master in whitewashing, ally America executes blatant injustices in warfare with IMPUNITY. What does one expect where "humanity" across the globe is headed? The US military have left its boot imprints across the globe from the Americas to Africa, Middle East and South-East Asia.

These boots are now marching towards the European frontier with Russia ... and all nations and its people remain silent! I will not. Any boots marching reminds me of the German military marching onward from one invasion and occupation to another nation in the Second World War. Never again!

Global Warming - distance between America and Europe is steadily increasing.
