Re-packaged spin since previous media crusade against #MBS failed

Actual news is stories CIA had "high confidence" MBS ordered the killing were false. They only had "medium to high confidence"
& Quote
“We lack direct reporting of the Crown Prince issuing a kill order.”
The messages in question are not even known to be about the operation
They are simply to one of the people now arrested for the killing

But the #WSJ has no knowledge what they were about & we don't know if the CIA does either. We don't even know what kind of messages they are
They also re-use a bit from 2017 claiming #MBS said
“we could possibly lure him outside Saudi Arabia and make arrangements,”

Only later they admit there's no proof this quote came from #MBS
Or that it could be a reference to a standing order to bring dissidents home
This is a partisan leak from someone in the CIA unhappy the media crusade to take down #MBS failed

They violated an oath to show the WSJ some classified info that actually changes nothing But gives all the usual suspects a chance to run more stories about this
