Ali Shihabi on U.S./Saudi Relations

As Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman arrives at the G20 summit in Argentina, the US Congress is souring on the Saudi/US alliance. The senate voted to end US military support for the war in Yemen, while the CIA says that MBS was directly responsible for the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. Ali Shihabi is close to the Saudi leadership, knew Khashoggi well, and spoke to Christiane Amanpour from DC.
