Webvan stole few of my tata/inforsys programers from a project, then went bust. Amazon later took some of its top people as AmazonFresh. But credit is due, could have kept many. Same as I bought Apple at $12 and Bitcoin at around $4000. Later sold them. cest la via, i don't dwell on it.
Dude, all that matters is the percentage of GDP. If some country in the middle of nowhere all the sudden discovers it has the largest gold repository in the world, easily mined, and their GDP quadruples in year one... their defense budget will follow suit. I realize you never went to college, much less taken an advanced course in economics, history, or even 8th grade math apparently... but christ almighty... there's no wonder you never post anything here above the ET version of the Tropic of Capricorn. Numbers just don't add up for you do they?
What you are talking about has absolutely zero relevance to the topic in hand. The deal was made in 2017 and 14 billion worth of weapons were bought in 2018 when the Saudi budget was 60 billion, your whole bullshit about the deal being 10 years is nonsense because the spending is not spread evenly.
Threads passed 5 million sign ups in 4 hours, another thing you were wrong about. You are not a smart person at all, you shoot from the hip without knowing any details about the topic in hand then pretend to be the smart one.
The Great and All Knowing VZ is not "the smart one". He's "the all knowing one". Big difference. Get it right.
And? There was a spike leading upto 2015 because of the Yemen war, this is a meaningless figure considering we are talking about what Saudi's are spending on defense imports - and not overall military spending which is completely different at times of war.
