Yes, Britain, US, Germany, France, Russia, China, etc, etc, etc, should all stop selling weapons.  I'm 100% in favor of that.  Just posted a link where they US is trying to stop.  But it's not easy, as you know, it's all about global oil.  And money. 

 

Guaranteed Washington doesn't dictate to SA.  And as you know, the relationship is in the toilet due to this.  Rightfully so:

Right, we've already said that Saudi Arabia and Iran are fighting proxy wars in the Middle East.

Okay, here's a link from wikipedia, about the arms industry.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arms_industry#World.27s_largest_arms_importers

In the above link, we see that Saudi Arabia is, supposedly, the second biggest arms importer on planet earth. Iran does not come close, Iran imports far less.

If everybody was to stop exporting arms to the Middle East, well, whose imports are going to be hit the hardest ? Surely, Saudi Arabia, and not Iran ? And yes, Saudi Arabia buys most of it's arms from America and Britain.
