we see that in the sections of the post. i'm grateful that we could provide that for him in the last year. i don't know if there's any other pointed questions, but there is a broad overview. >> one of the fascinating things about jamaal is that he wasn't a classic dissident he wasn't calling for the overthrow of the regime or the monarchy. he wasn't even calling for radical democratic change. in his presentation at stanford about a year ago he was a measured and thoughtful advocate of reform which most people think if reform is going to come to the region politically, that is going to be the way that it happens. another thing that made him a fascinating figure he was well along in life. he wasn't a young man. he had a pretty intimate career as advisor and confidant of different royal figures in saudi arabia. but he seemed to be very much opened, thinking and evolving after he had these so i don't know if there's anything more you want to say in the reflection. exactly that i'm thinking again back to anythin thinking he wano m

and john, for "the washington post" and host of wnyc radio's america on the line there. both msnbc contributors. and ned, your reaction to this latest reporting from "the washington post" saying american intelligence intercepts have captured saudi officials discussing a plan to detain khashoggi. >> in some ways, lawrence, this underscores our worst fear. in the intelligence community there's something known as intelligence community directive 191. and it requires that the intelligence community provides as you said a duty to warn to both u.s. citizens and non-u.s. citizens alike in three scenarios. in the threat of murder, bodily harm, and in the threat of yes, kidnapping. so the fact that jamal khashoggi entered the saudi consulate in istanbul, turkey, seemingly unafraid and unconcerned with his own safety suggests that did not happen. i can tell you when i was at cia that was pretty automatic, this provision of to warn of potential victims of such crimes. in this case if that did not happen it raises profound questions. and i think a lot of those questions center on th

but he also after his self-imposed exile he continued writing for the washington post and the washington post has published in the capital of the probably most important the saudis have when it comes to military support economy and so on so he was embarrassing the saudi elite the saudi leadership in the capital of one of the countries they can move most about in the world and i think that made him. especially dangerous to the saudis it's not just since this is twenty fourteen at least three other saudi critics have disappeared why is this case getting so much attention. i think that it. became. washington post because of his history he. he is really one of these men who were very close in the last few years we can say in the last two decades at least if not more very close to the leadership and he was very close to the time and others or. even very close to the saudi security services so i think that that's why he's he's really important or he came to this. very special because he's much more prominent and because. this situation around that he was in washington and went to . i mean peop

"the washington post." i want to say a few words to offer my own initial framing thoughts on where we are at and why we are here. i have thought a lot about why there has been such an emotional this isng, and why likely to be -- i think it will be -- it is part of what we will be debating, whether it will be a watershed event, maybe in global affairs. i think certainly for the future of saudi arabia. i do want to say, and i will have my own column in "the american interest" tomorrow that will spell this out -- it is worth your mining ourselves that jamal khashoggi is hardly the first important critic, dissident, public intellectual figure deemed to be an oppositionist and therefore an enemy of an authoritarian regime murdered abroad. there has been a steady stream of these by a number of authoritarian states in recent years, one that we know well and that has been widely reported -- namely, russia. another that has been largely ignored, namely, rwanda. why such an emotional response here? , first of all, i

the washington post is saying that one source has told them that u.s. intelligence found communications within saudi arabia the talked about trying to lure back to saudi arabia it doesn't say if it was to arrest him to interrogate him to kill him it doesn't say whether or not that information was passed along to him before he entered the consulate so these are two of the most respected newspapers in the united states al jazeera has not been able to independently confirm this but this will certainly increase the pressure on president donald trump to say or do something because this was a prominent american columnist he is a beloved among a small group of the intelligence elites in washington d.c. and they are speaking out this story is making front page news it is on all of the cable news channels including the one that the president watches the most fox news it is being greeted with a sense of outrage and that is only growing as each story reveals new information robert pearson is a non resident scholar at the middle east institute in serve so u.s. ambas

president donald trump told the washington post cold obviously this been deception and there's been lies regarding the killing of saudi journalist. the saudi government says a journalist died during a fistfight inside its consulate in istanbul earlier this month the washington post also says cia officers have heard the audio recording that turkey says proves how he died early on saturday chum says he was not satisfied with saudi arabia's explanation. but did not condemn them either let's go live to our generous party call him in washington for us patty multiple statements from the president. in the last few hours and on his explanation he clearly can't get away from this. no and i think this is probably the most remarkable development we've seen so far let's keep in mind this is a president who has been consistent throughout the seventeen plus days that this story has been dominated the news when he talks about this he talks about saudi being an alley talks about weapon sales but this is the first time that he is openly casting serious doubt on the saudi story let's also keep in mind how

howie: they moved the goal post making this about drinking and yearbook inscriptions. what was the meaning of the devil's triangle. philippe: i think this goes for every network. this has been a confusion and challenging issue for weeks. i think what you are seeing with the media are two things. you are seeing the standard partisan description. people could watch now and confuse that susan and molly and i have opinions. but the second thing is. this has in some way made us back to a 50-50 nation which we haven't been since election day. i know that sounds strange. we have been more of a 55, 45, 60-40 nation. the seering moments even if they are not incredibly pro trump. how will be unprecedented for a supreme court nominee to write an op-ed piece where kavanaugh said i was very emotional. i know my tone was sharp and i said a few things i should not have said. that suggests to me the cite civil of not having -- the criticism of not having a judicial temperament stung. mollie: when the media talked about it they said, my my, he's emotional. the outlandish charges were ne

according to the post, the turkish government has told u.s. officials that it has audio and video recordings that prove khashoggi was interrogated, tortured, murdered w, and dismembered. the post reports that turkish officials are hesitant to release those recordings. saudi arabia claims khashoggi left the consulate soon after entering and denies a role in his disappearance. as willie mentioned, in an interview yesterday, president trump expressed concern that khashoggi may have been killed at the consulate, but went on to praise u.s. relations with saudi arabia as, quote, excellent, and insisted that any consequences for the disappearance of the u.s.-based journalist would not be economic. >> there are certainly other ways to address this situation. but i will tell you right now, up front, they're spending $110 billion purchasing military equipment and other things. if we don't sell it to them, they'll say, well, thank you very much, we'll buy it from russia or thank you very much, we'll buy it from china. there are other things we can do. le
