    I did, I showed you Saudi weapons import figures which is what we are talking about, total military spending is irrelevant since spending on personnel can spike when there is a conflict going on (which it was).

    Read my earlier post about total military spending vs total weapons import spending. Saudi's never imported so much or such a large amount (which you called low) until 2017.

    But ignore the Yemeni conflict which shows up in total military spending?

    No... you debate like an inbred hick that lives in a shack South of Metaire, La.

    Says you, who has been posting irrelevant babble for two days.

    It's not even clear what is even your point. Why don't you do your math and enlighten us all about the number you consider large enough to be considered corruption? You are welcome to post it in percentages.

    Yeah. The Saudis.... well known weapon manufactures. Maybe they sold 3K swords and 20 dozen camels to Alexander the Great.

    >>>Of course they import their weapons you fool.

    And it's a percentage of their GDP.
    This is like "the way things are" 101.

    Another irrelevant tangent, absolutely irrelevant bullshit.

    Who said anything about Saudi's having a defense industry of their own, of course they import.

    The point is that they import a certain amount per year and the biggest import bill they ever had was after 2017.

    Do you get the point or you will post some other bullshit again?
