Yes
GENIUS.
Just what we need.
Massive amounts of modern weapons in the middle east.
Keep arming them Bush, and you will get your wish of all out global war on an unprecedented scale.
Yes, your stocks & pockets will rise and fill and hitherto unimagined rate.
Go war machine, go!

Since Iran is arming the Shi'ia militias in Iraq... someone needs to arm the Sunni insurgents over there, don't they?Allen Fieldhouse, home of the 2008 NCAA men's Basketball Champions! Go Jayhawks!

Yeah sure and where does it end. Oh I forgot the Saudi's and THAT Carlyle Group are buddies. Odd how a majority of 9/II attackers were from Saudi Arabia yet we chose not to invade that country. Odd Isn't it???

Generally when we provide arms to a middle eastern country we can count on them being our friends forever.I cannot come up with a new sig till I get this egg off my face.0

Oh goody, now that we're buddies, I hope they can guard our ports for us.

Selling weapons to the enemy.All I know is that to see, and not to speak, would be the great betrayal.

Just when you though it couldn't get any more ridiculous
Bush brings us stupid on steroids...Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

But it must be a reward for Saudi Arabia's sterling human rights record. Who cares if they've beheaded 102 people so far this year, right ?!0

What does my presence in said country have to do with it ? There's this new thing called reading, you should check it out. It saves people from having to travel 10,000 miles in order to verify simple facts.0 -

This litterally makes me sick! I honestly have to say the biggest traitors this country has right now is the president and his administration. Possibly the biggest traitors in the history of this country. 17/21 terrorists on 9/11 were from Saudi Arabia...and they are said to be one of the biggest groups of suicide bombers...and we are now arming them! What a fricken joke. These war mongers will get what's coming to them on the day they die....it won't be all roses and cash on that day!
Why don't we sell them small planes and teach them how to fly them into buildings while we are at it...just to make sure we cover all our bases!“Kept in a small bowl, the goldfish will remain small. With more space, the fish can grow double, triple, or quadruple its size.”

This is a perfect issue for a presidential candidate to jump on... This is actually an issue that should be over-politicized, and blown out of proportion in the media...
of course it won't, there will be some stupid harmless debate comment argued about or another celebrity arrested instead.My whole life
was like a picture
of a sunny day

It doesn't matter how many arms are given to countries like Saudi Arabia. It only matters that the U.S./Israel have MORE arms. Its relative security. There's a reason Israel just got a new deal with the U.S. for military support of 3 Billion/Yr... Suddenly, Israel's opposition to a strong Saudi Arabia is OK.
