President of USA are known to bomb civilians. And still they get re-elected and even some people give them donations that is bribes to support their murderous tendencies. And nothing is being done about this. No death penalties for people involved. No one is spending rest of their live in jail. Or being prosecuted and judged by jury made of peers of victims.

Are you saying there is a moral equivalence equivalence between killing terrorists in military operations .. and going to another country to behead a journalist who said mean things about you?
To be fair, Mohamed bin Salman is the crown prince and de facto ruler of Saudi Arabia, not Qatar. The two countries aren't on the best terms (as a matter of fact Qatar were blockaded by a Saudi-led coalition for years trying to strongarm them), so you can't just apply what one did to the other. They're absolutely similar (autocratic, Arab, traditional, family-based, Muslim, opressive towards anyone who is not a straight male but genuinely hospitable), but not the same.

That's the thing. In the middle-east there are no repercussions or consequences for the 1%. They can literally cut off the arms of house cleaners who quit, or behead journalists, without anything more than harsh words by b-rate American and German politicians.
They are above all laws, and we fight each other to suck their ... wallets.
royal families can commit genocide, and still have no legal financial or personal recourse.
To them, he was just a worker and workers are garbage in the Middle East.
