Opinion: In a book proposal, Khashoggi outlined a U.S.-inspired vision for a new Saudi Arabia
By David B. Ottaway April 5 at 7:00 AM David Ottaway is a fellow in the Middle East Program at the Wilson Center.
The crown prince tried to convince the White House that Khashoggi was a dangerous Islamist threat to the United States, but his book project reveals just the opposite: He was a great admirer of U.S. democracy and society. He had belonged to the Muslim Brotherhood in his youth but had long since disassociated himself from what Saudi authorities have branded a terrorist organization.
Khashoggi wanted the crown prince to draw inspiration from the United States to assure the success of Vision 2030, which he endorsed to overcome Saudi Arabia’s “systematic and deep-rooted” problems. He called for “out-of-the-box unprecedented solutions.” And he saw such solutions emerging from the “revolutionary ideas” embedded in the crown prince’s vision, particularly the focus on providing “quality life” to Saudis, a term and idea Khashoggi attributed directly to U.S. discourse.
