Saudis two other options China and Russia to buy arms at much lower prices. Israel will get 30 billion aid in arms and military deals completely ignoring the that this money could be used for failing infrastructure of US. Minneapolis bridge collapse is one example and there are thousands of bridges road railroads which need immediate attention. This serious problem is ignored because lack of money. This can only happen in USA. US is trying to sell their arms by creating false Iran fear. Saudis two other options China and Russia to buy arms at much lower prices.

Olmert's sign-off has more to do with the steep 25% "sweetener" increase in military "aid" and the despotic regime being in cahoots with Bushmert than Saudi Arabia being remotely "moderate" as you've pointed out. All those billions -- what a lot of quality education, infrastructure and health-care that would buy. Well said.
