There are all sorts of problems with the Saudi government, but the Khashoggi assassination is the incident that really turned public opinion against the royal family. MBS himself denied responsibility, but the CIA and UN investigators concluded that MBS had ordered Khashoggi’s assassination. In apparent response, a group of operatives linked to MBS murdered and dismembered Khashoggi. Khashoggi had written critical Washington Post pieces about Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman and the Saudi intervention in Yemen. In 2018, the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi walked into the Saudi consulate in Istanbul to get documents that he needed to get married.
