‘Jeff Bezos once mourned Jamal Khashoggi in public—now the Amazon billionaire is making billion-dollar deals with his executioner, which reveals more about his values than any vigil ever could.’
'Now, with this Saudi deal, Bezos appears to be crossing a new line—not just partnering with an authoritarian regime, but aligning with the very man responsible for his own employee’s assassination. It’s not just another deal. It’s a betrayal—not just of Khashoggi’s memory, but of Bezos’ own employees, readers, and the democratic principles he once used his platform to defend.'
