The Jamal Khasoggi incident became more and more complex. If you look at it, there is a situation where the mind does not breath. Somehow a person disappeared in the building of the consulate, whose entrance was clear. This person is a journalist. And if you think that this journalist is a columnist in the Washington Post, an important newspaper in the United States, where Saudi Arabia has very close relations, you can clearly see that what is happening carries many oddities.
 
We have witnessed different operations of intelligence organizations both in our country and in the world. However, it is not possible to interpret and make sense of this situation as it is in others. Once the incident occurred, the territory of Saudi Arabia was legal. So we have no chance to intervene directly like any other place. On the other hand, the legal status of such foreign missions was established in the 1961 and 1963 Vienna Conventions. The first agreement brought immunity from the authorities of the embassy, ​​whatever the accusation or claim, while the second agreement emphasized the law of the consulates. Although the position of the consulates does not contain strict provisions as much as embassies, perceptually there is no difference between them.
 
That is, as Sedat Ergin also expressed Turkey's consul have arrest powers, but this is not a step to be taken so easy as they say it is.
 
After this event, the United States is expected to receive any serious warnings from Arabia. In fact, it is claimed that it was informed that something was planned on Jamal Khasoggi in the listening of the CIA. If there is such a situation, the question of why Jamal Khasoggi was not informed is not given satisfactory answer. Now, if you want to try to put stones in different places.
 
Jamal Khasoggi is known to have opposed the new heir to the new war, especially because of the war in Yemen. In addition, the relationship between Saudi Arabia and Iran, which is not already the United States, provoked by the Kurdish language over the war language has moved forward. In this case, we can easily conclude that Saudi Arabia and America are uncomfortable with Jamal Khasoggi by opposing Iran-Yemen.
 
In addition, it will be remembered through the crisis with Saudi Arabia and Qatar UAE to Turkey had overreacted. Not only that, but they went further with the US in Syria to give all kinds of support to the PYD. The response to Qatar was that after the Hamas and Sisi coup, the Muslim Brotherhood members from Egypt had accepted their country. While there are all these in the photo, a journalist who criticizes his country because of the operations in Yemen, who is claimed to be close to the Brotherhood, but who is said to be in a network of different relationships which are not very clear according to others, can not be the plan of a simple mind to lose in Istanbul. Already a long time if who or who will benefit from a further diplomatic imperatives that live outside the traffic relationships further raising tension between Turkey and Saudi Arabia, their role in this work should never be ignored. Gave a message to Turkey via Spoonbill someone, there's no doubt. Now it is our falling; Turkey had taken all aspects of this message, this serious event every step in accordance with international law to emerge with all the clarity that horse in a transparent manner but must act showing would give opportunity to the different goals through this event. It should be remembered that this event is filled with very complicated traps.
