    We didn’t do shit when our own citizen was butchered on the order of a foreign head of state.

    Didn’t do shit when a foreign head of state effectively ordered his “bodyguards” to attack American citizens who were protesting on American soil.

    We’re barely doing shit about the currently growing coup.

      to be fair, “doing shit” really means “doing shit that benefits people without much power and influence”, so, there’s basically no incentive other than “because it’s the right and just thing to do” which has never been the M.O. , despite everything people have been taught in the movies you make.

      Khashoggi isn’t Canadian, though. Plus, US-Canada relations are, I’d imagine, a bit tighter than US-Saudi relations… I’d hope, at least.
