I am not sure why those two events are relevant. It is like saying WeWork IPO was the first one to fail after Trump's Ukraine comments were revealed. Saudi Arabia just like United States engages in lot of state sponsored violence against all sort of innocent people. HN itself has hundreds of stories where USA harassed and threatned in some cases killed journalists and other innocent individuals. They would have killed Snowden if they could. None of that should matter to those who take federal funding for whatever other reasons. The way I see it, it it better for Saudi Money to go into scammy tech startups than another widow maker jet from Lockheed Martin.
