Lawsuit: Qatari Sheikh Tried to Force His American Security Personnel To Murder Two People

An Arab sheikh tried to enlist his American security staffer to murder two people and ordered him to hold another American captive, according to a new lawsuit filed in federal court.
A second plaintiff in the lawsuit makes similar allegations, saying he served as the sheikh's around-the-clock medic to monitor his vitals during 36-hour long benders and that he was held captive in a compound, threatened with a gun and ultimately jumped from an 18-foot wall to escape.

Sheikh Khalid Bin Hamad Bin Khalifa Al Thani, the brother of the ruler of the oil-rich nation of Qatar, is the target of the lawsuit, which was filed July 23 in a Florida federal court and has not been previously reported.
The security guard is Matthew Pittard, a Florida man. The medic is Matthew Allende, a California man. Both worked for Khalid in Beverly Hills and also traveled with him regularly to Qatar and London.
"During his employment, Pittard was solicited by Defendant Khalid for the murder of two individuals. In approximately late September of 2017 and November of 2017, in Los Angeles, California, Defendant Khalid asked Pittard to murder a male and a female who Defendant Khalid viewed as threats to his social reputation and personal security. Pittard refused to execute these unlawful requests," the suit says.
"From approximately July 7-10, 2018, Defendant Khalid and his private Qatari security staff held an American citizen against the American citizen's will on at least two occasions in one of Defendant Khalid's personal residences," the suit continues. "At Defendant Khalid's request, the American citizen was arrested and jailed at the Onaiza Police Station in Doha, Qatar. Pittard and the United States Embassy came to the aide of the American citizen, and helped the American citizen reach a point of safety, and eventually safely depart from the country."

"[U]pon learning that Pittard had assisted in securing the American citizen's safety," Khalid said Pittard would "pay the price," according to the lawsuit. "Defendant Khalid directly told Pittard that he would kill him, bury his body in the desert, and kill Pittard's family."
Pittard was held against his will, his electronics and personal belongings were taken, and he was fired, the lawsuit says. Khalid brandished a Glock 26 firearm while forcing Pittard "to execute new employment documents," the lawsuit says.

Quick, get Rick Wilson!

Oh wait, Rick Wilson is busy accusing Republicans of "winking" at "white supremacy."

This is why I just laugh and laugh about the blowup story about the "journalist" who was killed by the Saudis.

I mean seriously, one so-called journalist? We're making a big deal about this... why? Because narcissistic sissy media types get a case of the vapors that somebody you might have some small margin of commonality with, was killed?

What egos you people have, thinking anyone cares about your sorry asses. If the Saudis wanted you dead, you'd be dead, but they don't because you aren't important. The real world is full of dangerous men, waiting to slit the throats of people who's throats need slitting, but you ain't important enough. Your throat is as useless as the rest of your stupid twatter loaded carcass.

It was "a website used by officers and their field agents around the world to speak to each other." Insecure as shit, took no time for the Iranians to google it out. Chinese got it. Entire spy rings in both countries destroyed, total of 60 (known) sources killed.

Further:

The government had already been warned about the hackability of the system by a defence contractor named John Reidy, whose job it was to hire human sources for the CIA in Iran. He alerted authorities in 2008. His official statement claimed that 70 percent of operations at the time may have been compromised already and that any agents using versions of the system were in danger. "The design and maintenance of the system is flawed," he said.

Mr Reidy was later fired for "conflicts of interests." According to Yahoo's report, there is anger among the intelligence community that there has been no accountability for the failure, despite being discussed in a secret hearing at the House and Senate Intelligence committee. One former official claiming that "our biggest insider threat is our own institution."

But you still can have common areas of interests with nations who aren't "friends" - in fact the entire idea of "friendship" between nations is foolish, doesn't fit the world as it is today. There are nations who can support our interests, and those who oppose us.

At the moment, Iran is the greatest danger to our interests in the middle east. (at other times I've written about Iran's drive to create a new Persian Empire which would dominate the region) Saudi Arabia is crucial to stopping them, because of geography. So we ally with the Saudi's the same way we allied with Stalin against Hitler - we didn't have to like him to realize that he served a purpose.

This is also why Israel now has a de-facto military alliance with the Saudi's. It is in their national interest to do so.

173 Weisser, who lives in Massachusetts, writes for his blog "Mike the Gun Guy," and has been quoted in The New Yorker and written essays on gun issues in The New York Times.

And he says that Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody's resistance to a proposed assault weapons ban is "complete nonsense."

Weisser might know what he's talking about. The leaders of Ban Assault Weapons Now! consulted with him when they crafted the amendment they want to put on the 2020 ballot...

...The proposed amendment defines an assault weapon as "semiautomatic rifles and shotguns capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition at once, either in fixed or detachable magazine, or any other ammunition-feeding device."

Existing owners would still be allowed to own their rifles and shotguns, but they'd have to register them within a year or turn them over. The amendment does not apply to handguns...

A lifelong NRA member calls Ashley Moody's resistance to assault weapons ban 'nonsense'

Posted by: BurtTC at August 09, 2019 01:44 PM (a2xio)

The gender nonsense was snuck under the tent flap by first using gender (a linguistic construct, pronouns used to describe apparent biological sex) as a polite euphemism, especially on official forms, for sex.

Once they had the euphemism in universal usage, they tried to supply a new definition of gender in order to sneak in the Tranzis. Gender was no longer just the linguistic "he, she, and it", but encompassed the entire idea of sexual identity.

Their new notion of gender must be soundly rejected.
Biological sex is objective reality, and your mental self___ never changes that reality.

You over simplify. 9/11 was in large part the result of a covert civil war going on inside Saudi itself, with some parts of the Family allying themselves with Bin Laden, and financing them. Look to no less than Bin Laden himself - he always said that his prime goal was to drive the US out of Saudi Arabia, and that was because we supported the other side in their internal war.

Well, thanks to our support and their ruthlessness, the side we backed finally won, and a significant number of the Saudi Royals were "disappeared" over the last 20 years. And Bush did a disservice by thinking that this all had to be kept secret.

Of course, that was probably because only a part of Bin Laden's and Al Qaeda's funding came from the Saudi's. Most of it came straight from the US itself, thanks to our good friends in the Pakistani ISI. That was the most maddening thing about the Afghan War - from the very start, the US was paying for all of the weapons on both sides.

Trump has totally outfoxed the Senate, was just reading on this elsewhere. Now that Gordon has "been retired", the No. 1 and No. 2 slots are both open. When that happens at an agency, a quirk in the law allows Trump to now appoint *anyone* who has been previously confirmed by the Senate for *any* position to the #2 spot, without any further Senate Action at all. And as long as the #1 slot stays empty, the person placed in the #2 slot has all of the duties and powers as if they were in the #1 slot.

looks like it's going to be a former Seal Team 6 commander named Joe Maquire. He may get nominated for the #1 slot someday - but Trump may leave that vacant for a while, just to show the Senate that he can put anyone he wants in the job, and there's nothing they can do about it.

Ridiculous. Islam means to see us dead or enslaved. But we aren't neighbors and we have some aligned interests with some Islamic states against other Islamic states. I have no interest in some overseas expedition to rid the world of Islam.

Arabs were quite efficient slavemasters. (still are) It was always Arab policy to castrate all male African slaves the instant they arrived in the Arab homelands. I presume any half breed children of female slaves would automatically be slaves as well, and any males would face the same treatment.

"Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

--- This is something a Real White Supremacist would say.

A real white supremacist knows deep in his heart, automatically that blacks and other minorities are always poor, because they gosh darn it!, just aren't as good as whites. "It is the way God intended." They will pat them on the head, and humor them like they do with the other mentally handicapped people they run into in public. Real White Supremacists are the most patronizing people to deal with. The KKK didn't want to get rid of blacks, they just didn't want the blacks to "get uppity" or start thinking they were equal to white folks. "Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids," is something a real white supremacist would say.
