Murder at the ConsulateA Poem by Bob BAt the Saudi Arabian Consulate, In Istanbul, Turkey, I hear Something dreadful happened, although Details are as yet unclear.
Saudi born Jamal Khashoggi, Journalist for the Washington Post, Entered the consulate knowing that It might not be a welcoming host.
An Apple Watch might seem useless. Khashoggi's Watch, nevertheless, Recorded his brutal beating and murder, According to the Turkish press. But was it an Apple Watch, or had Turkish authorities bugged the room? Whatever the case, people are certain
That that’s where Khashoggi met his doom.
We know he entered the building whole. We're waiting to hear more news releases, For many fear that the journalist, Exited the building in pieces.
When asked if he'd condemn the Saudis If they had committed the ghastly deed, Trump at first appeared reluctant To criticize them or intercede.
The Saudis pay billions of dollars For weapons, he said, to the USA. And what's-his-name wasn't even An American citizen anyway.
Later, Trump admitted that We need a thorough investigation. But sanctions involving money? No, That would severely hurt our nation.
Meanwhile, the Saudis kill innocent Yemenis with the weapons they buy, And rectitude falls by the wayside As bank accounts multiply.
