That "state-of-the-art American weaponry" isn't going to "fall into the hands of a new regime in Arabia" until the Saudis lose their war with Iran which has been going on since 632 CE.  

That weaponry and the civilian aircraft are being purchased now for billions of dollars  to keep all those union workers at Boeing and their corporate masters employed and making money in the stock market respectively.

It was labeled the "military-industrial complex" by a guy named Eisenhower over 50 or 60 years ago.

The Democrats in Washington State need those union votes; the Republicans need those profits to keep some Republicans in Congress.

It's all good!
