$600 billion invested in America gives the Saudis influence here in the US. Their investments in colleges has given Islam a box seat to influence American students. 600 Billion anywhere increases and spreads out that influence. Take a pass and let the Saudis buy weapons from Raytheon et al and put a cordon around the mullahs.

It says something that both Israel and Saudi Arabia both are extremely happy that Trump is back in. Biden-Harris was a complete disaster for the Middle East (other than Iran of course).
