Well... that's a good point but Saudi is mostly buying US and Israeli manufactured arms, mostly paid for with Israeli and US dollars given to Saudi either through oil purchases or foreign aid.

Military sales are similar to inexperienced gamblers playing Texas Holdem.

The govt is dealt a pair of aces, and declare "all in!" and pushes all of they're money in.

Everyone else folds.

The government claims all of the money that was just pushed into the pot, and declares, "Look at all the money I just won!" ;-)
