I doubt the west does sanctions the money is too large.
Saudi is actually trying to strike back and claiming they will sanction others over this

Our country is morally bankrupt. Gone are the days when things like decency and supporting our democratic ideals are over.
The country is now about only money.
Hope you guys like it, because you bought it.
Everything surrounding the “disappearance”, perhaps “murder”, of Saudi critic/journalist Jamal Khashoggi screams manufactured geopolitical propaganda. All current narrative indications are pushing in one direction. Here are the warning flags:
♦Flag #1 – Jamal Khashoggi in self-exile, worked for The Washington Post, and was hiding behind ‘residency’ in the U.S. WaPo is a notorious left-wing intelligence propaganda outlet for the most politicized elements within the U.S. intelligence apparatus.
♦Flag #2 – Turkey (Recep Erdogan) pushing the narrative. Erdogan is a notorious liar when it comes to his interests, and a master manipulator. Turkey/Erdogan is the most openly staunch supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood and has a self-interest in distracting/deflecting U.S. economic pressure from their ongoing relationship with Iran.
♦Flag #3 – Saudi Arabia [Mohamed Bin Salman (MbS)] has been instituting political and cultural reforms that are antithetical to the advanced objectives of the Muslim Brotherhood, Recep Erdogan (wants new Ottoman Empire), and extreme Islam.
♦Flag #4 – The voices behind the U.S. push to promote the Jamal Khashoggi story are all aligned in one purposeful and ideological direction. Former Obama officials including: John Brennan, Samantha Power, Valerie Jarrett et al, are all pushing the story in a transparent effort to create division between the U.S. and KSA and by extension benefit their Muslim Brotherhood and Iranian allies.
♦Flag #5 – The left-wing, highly political, intelligence apparatus – and all DC interests are joined by the notorious right-wing members of the UniParty war machine. [Rubio, Sasse, Flake, Schumer, Menendez, et al] Together with the exact same left-wing media voices (right and left), and all the political ‘think-tanks’, who advance the DC drumbeat. Yes, the gang is all back together again in their high-brow pontification of ‘muh values‘.
♦Flag #6 – The story is being pushed into U.S. media outlets by a notorious Muslim Brotherhood mouthpiece, Khaled Saffuri:
[I]n the past 24 hours we now have a glimpse of exactly who is feeding the establishment media reporting on the Khashoggi matter — including at least one source who was tied to a joint Libyan intelligence and al-Qaeda plot to assassinate the Saudi crown prince.
Khaled Saffuri is the protege of al-Qaeda fundraiser Abdurahman Alamoudi, who is currently serving a 17-year sentence in federal prison for his role as bagman for the Libyan/Al-Qaeda assassination plot. (read more)

Oh no that isnt the only thing the US could do. Could do things like freeze assets in US banks. Could also limit access to US banks meaning Saudis couldn't do business. Could also require any US company working in Saudi Arabia must stop. Who do you think keeps their oil wells pumping they hire US companies to get parts and repair.
Than there is the 1 2 3 agreement the Saudis want with the US. This is a requirement before the US will help build nuclear reactors in a country. Its basically promising you want use it to manufacture nuclear weapons. They want to build 2 nuclear reactors because right now they rely on oil to produce electricity. And several of the plants are in need of repair so they have an energy crisis on their hands.

Must agree with Willtell, a lot of noise but nothing of any significance will be done. Too much money.

All of the players in this drama are guilty of crimes against humanity to include the U.S. Having said that--and seeing Brennan open his evil and traitorous yap about the whole thing--I'm really starting to wonder at whose feet the blame rests:
