Jamal Khashoggi’s Long Road to the Doors of the Saudi Consulate

The long road that took Jamal Khashoggi to the front door of the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul and the horror that lay inside began in the 1980s in Afghanistan, when he was a passionate young journalist who supported the Saudi establishment — but couldn’t resist criticizing the royal family when he thought it was wrong.

"Jamal Khashoggi’s Long Road to the Doors of the Saudi Consulate" is from the October 12, 2018 Opinion section of The Washington Post. It was written by David Ignatius and narrated by Sam Scholl.
