Believe it or not, US support has made KSA extremely weak, especially militarily. So its more like keep your enemies close, or in this case, oil targets. US could topple KSA in a matter of months.

- rgbrenner 8y agoSA is one of the largest arms purchasers in the world. They spend 10% of the gdp on their military. If the US spent that much, we would be spending 3x what we are currently -- or almost $2T/year. They are about as strong as they can possibly be. But at the end of the day, they're 32m people. 1/10th the US population or about the same as Texas or New York. The US didn't "make ksa extremely weak"... they're weak because they're small.
