Two casualties; two geographies, same logic

Within a week distance two murders occurred in two cities that are a world apart. In Istanbul Jamal Khashoggi a US based journalist disappeared inside the premises of the Saudi consulate. In Caracas the body of Fernando Alban was dropped by the elves of the regime’s secret police from the 10th floor of the dreadful force headquarters. Both events fit the logics of totalitarian regimes that resort to fear as a fundamental vehicle to preserve power.
