#2 Why would the Arabs, or Spanish or whomever, need CIA help to learn how to torture someone? They have had thousands of years to get very, very inventive in the craft.

#4 Interesting that the Post continues to fuss about this. What do you suppose they wish to accomplish, dear Reader?

...My feeling is that they're trying to keep each other scared. Remember that the Saudis actually did to that nice Mr. Khashoggi fella what the media glitterati insist DJT wants to do, and that's declare journalists Enemies Of The State and execute them. In their little echo chamber, each of them is next. The fact that members of the Saudi hit team got trained at the SOTA in thoroughly irrelevant things is a bonus - as far as they're concerned, it's just more proof that Trump Bad and is out to get them.

My .02; your mileage may vary, of course. ;)

#5 Interesting thoughts, Mike. They really are like the bull, focussed on the waving cape while the blade goes in elsewhere.

But of course they don’t really believe it, any more than children telling ghost stories. Because if they did, they would very quietly not draw his attentiono to themselves for saying that which he did not want said.

Uh-huh. Yeah, Yewbetcha. I remember hearing that song and dance in '93 Democratic House show hearings where they tried to link every Right Wing Death Squad south of the Rio Grande to the CIA and Ronald Reagan's presidency.
