Cannot the Sauds defend themselves with weapons we sold them?

"Cannot the Sauds defend themselves with weapons we sold them?"

Not alone. We've allowed Iran's buildup with the help of its commie friends go on for too long for that to happen. Saudi won't need to go it alone anyway. Among other things, the world economy depends too much on oil for Saudi nations to allowed to be isolated in the face of attacks from the new axis countries.

Besides, according to Iran, the U.S.A. is "the Great Satan," and Iran has long and frequently made its intentions to annihilate the U.S.A. all too clear. And we're not going to willingly allow Iran to mount nukes. If Iran does get nukes mounted by then, the job of taking it down will only be rougher for everyone with the nuclear exchanges that would follow.
