Why doesn’t Saudi Arabia see treasury bonds as dead capital as described in the article? It is money that isn’t being used for anything.

I feel like I'm missing something: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/u-s-announces-sanctions-on-saud...

> U.S. announces sanctions against 17 Saudis over Khashoggi's death

In addition to the other person commenting on the five indicted in Saudi Arabia are scapegoats for MBS, a different set of people in US government attempted to trade the permanent resident guy Turkey wants to kill/shut up in exchange for having Turkey shut down the Khashoggi investigation because it's embarrassing to Saudi Arabia. The USA at the executive level is pretty schizophrenic on the subject.

They are scapegoats.

The person who ordered the murder, commonly believed to be the Crown Prince, isn't going to face a thing.

Gotcha. I was unaware, I have been following that closely. I personally don't care for our ties to that nation
