Journalist gone, nobody knows where? Another incident becoming a major event?
Background and run up these past years?
First it looked like Turkey would be an ally to the US during the Cold War against the Soviets and the 'War on Terror' during the Bush yrs
Turkey then changes, no longer is secular and western leaning but goes more islamist under Erdogan, more muslim brotherhood under Bush and Obama years. Relations seem to strain during this time, regime change in Libya, the War in Syria a lot of players in the region, Saudi, Iran, Turkey, Qatar, Russia, Israel, the French, British, USA into the meat grinder called Syria, most agree ISIS or ISIL or Daesh should be taken out but its complicated, for example Turkey and the Kurds which are US allies
islamist Terrorism explodes in the Middle East at levels never seen before, the refugee crisis makes European nations become more isolationist, nationalist and separate, may have contributed to events like 'Brexit'
Now a journalist gone missing
Could turn into a major international event
Turkey may be turning back to the USA for help after leaning to Russian in recent years? or is there something else going on behind the scenes?
... here's where it goes PirateNews conspiracy like
There are reports spy footage is out there, someone collecting film and sounds, spying on an embassy?
Would the FBI, KGB, Russians, CIA and Mi6 know something?
Turks tell U.S. officials they have audio and video recordings that support conclusion Khashoggi was killed
Turkish probably do not have money for a trade war with Saudi? the Turkish currency fell, they have investments in unstable places for example crypto moves in Turkey and Bitcoin is going to go down as one of the biggest scams in history. European banks are in Turkey, those lent the money and are therefore exposed? There have been other events in Turkey for example an 'Al Lahu Akbar' before shooting dead 39 people in an Instanbul nightclub packed with New Year's Eve partygoers, the cost of security, wars and other geo political events.
Now a journalist who wrote for the Washington Post and Guardian Newspaper has gone missing
Some blogs commentators even say the guy could have been killed

Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s mysterious disappearance, explained

The incident could impact Saudi Arabia’s close relationship with the US.
National Security Adviser John Bolton said Friday that Saudi Arabia still has not established with the U.S. what the facts are in the case of journalist Jamal Khashoggi’s disappearance.
Many fear Khashoggi was killed in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, and the Turkish government insists the Saudis did just that. The Saudis have denied it. On "The Hugh Hewitt Show," Bolton said he and other leaders in U.S. foreign policy have demanded more information from the Saudis, including Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

find-facts/
"Honestly we just don't know what the facts are and that was one of the points that I made to the crown prince: We need to find out what the facts are and we need to get this resolved quickly, because if it is another operation, people need to understand that," Bolton said. "I think the Saudis themselves themselves are being damaged because we don't have the facts out there's obviously been a historical animosity between Turkey and Saudi Arabia."
With the international unrest over the incident, Bolton said the Saudis need to resolve the matter "as soon as possible."
Bolton also hit back at critics who said President Donald Trump is turnin

The chat and blogs and news articles hint
Missing Saudi journalist was killed?
Some other things to consider? A brawl outside the Capital Washington DC between Kurdish / Armenia US citizen human rights protestors and Turk body guard goons? arrogant Saudi recently tweeting a threat at Canada? the failed Coup in Turkey, who was connected to it? Growing Trade War between United States and Turkey? the Qatari blockade, Iranian influence, other players in the region, Qatar dustup. Now, Saudi Game of Thrones "red wedding" mainstream press seems unwilling to pursue these types of story further, despite all of their interesting and fairly obvious implications

Dissident Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi has disappeared after going into the Saudi embassy in Istanbul to complete some paperwork regarding his impending marriage. The Turkish authorities are accusing the Saudis of murdering him and disposing of his body.

Turkey says it has video and audio that proves journalist was tortured, killed inside Saudi consulate
http://m.canadaka.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=121980
This is supposedly how it went down: Kasshogi was lured to the Saudi embassy in Turkey in order to obtain documents for his marriage. He arrived at the Saudi Embassy and went inside. He was tied up, tortured and eventually killed. 2 Diplomatic jets arrived carrying 15 Saudi Diplomats (agents) who brought with them a bone saw and 15 Diplomatic bags. Kasshogi was chopped into 15 pieces each of roughly 15lbs and was then smuggled out of the country in pieces.

including US political reaction, European Union and possible business 'sanctions' ron paul forum chat saying he was a CIA asset, he liked ISIS posts on twitter and he was chopped up and flushed down the toilet body parts clogged up the sewer system? a yahoo news link states Mr Erdogan's government finds itself in a tricky position. On the one hand, though it finds itself on the opposite side of several major regional confrontations with Saudi Arabia, it has no interest in a fight with the Crown Prince, whose nation is a potential source of investment revenue at a time when the Turkish economy is on the ropes.
On the other hand, while Turkey itself has a poor recent record on press freedom issues, it has allied itself with Arab world dissidents opposed to autocracies throughout the region.
“It seems that a period of headaches is about to begin for Saudi Arabia,” said a commentary in the pro-Erdogan Aksam newspaper. “A big crisis could break out between Ankara and Riyadh. The horrible ‘extermination’ of a journalist could also bring about the end of Crown Prince Salman.”

some speculation, one thing you could ask is who benefits from the chaos certain powers could benefit from the geo politics, traders of course banks and people who hedge bets on barrels of oil going up and down. Turkey probably has some powerplay, i'm sure Iran and Russia don't mind watching this mess Plus wasn't there some infighting in Saudi, the family turns on itself, like 'Game of Thrones' there was a purge a billionaire Chairman of Middle East Broadcasting Company, a Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, billionaire businessman, someone else rumored to be shot another guy tortured or interrogated in a hotel, were hundreds arrested and could the Saudi infighting be still ongoing? You get the feeling even when everything is reported there might be another final switch another double cross going on? The stock market started to 'lose as much as $33 billion of its value on Sunday in one of the first signs of the economic pain that Riyadh could suffer over the affair.' news reports say. Or House of Saud, getting away with murder as usual? but usually atrocities by Saudi or Israel are off limits for UK/US discussions? The guy who may have been killed, it seems sloppy like it was done on purpose if done, a resident of the United States, it sounds like they want to send a message to other journalists. Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN), the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Tuesday that “everything today points to” the idea that Saudi journalist and legal U.S. resident Jamal Khashoggi was murdered last week inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. Both the Neo-liberal regressive Left establishment and the Rightwing Conservative establishment really does deserve shit for this, shit like this is a long time coming, both parties deserve criticism in the US because both of them go soft on the Saudis?

Some allege or say this missing journalist has family ties to events like the Iran Contra Affair, the reporter may have wrote for US media but he isn't an American.
Did the Turks and others suspect this coming? For example is it just standard monitoring or more? Turkey paying so close attention on one person entering one building?
Trump suggested 'rouge killers' as the Saudi explained. A complex mess? No body, no crime although most now suspect the journalist was killed
