American $20 billion arms sale to Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and the sheikhdoms represent a meeting point between corporate greed of military-industrial complex and yet mistaken approach to the Iranian nuclear crisis. Faced with a similar crisis in Cuba, Kennedy started mobilization of the US army even at risk of confronting the Soviets. Bush, already entangled in Iraq and Afghanistan debacles, seeks palliative measures. His newest idea is bankrupting Iran through the arms race. He therefore offers top-of-the-line weapons to Iran’s neighbors. Iran, however, doesn’t fear Saudis or Egyptians. Egypt has no quarrel with Iran whatsoever, and Saudis – Iran knows that – are impotent cowards unable to fight a sandbag, let alone the Shiite empire. American weapons sales reassure Saudis and Egypt, remind them once again that America for some odd reason stands behind them, and they need not fear Iran. But not fearing Iran, they would not oppose its nuclear program. Nor did they oppose it, anyway. Saudis and Egyptians publicly upheld Iran’s right to nuclear technology. Egypt took the Iranian crisis for an opportunity to reinvigorate its own nuclear program and Saudi Arabia reportedly follows the suit. The military power will increase Saudi Arabia’s credentials of Islamist flagship.
America and Russia collectively arm every single enemy of Israel who was silenced with a kickback of $600 million increase in the US military aid. Wait, we don’t need that aid which amounts to 16% of Israel’s defense budget. Rather, we expect our friends not to arm our sworn enemies like Saudi Arabia and Egypt and refrain from spiraling the arms race in our backyard.

Israel cannot sustain arms race with Muslims because dictatorships can funnel larger chunks of their budget into defense spending than a welfare democracy. So far, Israel spends a larger part of her GDP on defense than her enemies, but collectively they spend much more than Israel. Much of Israel’s defense budget is wasted on conscripts while Saudis spend mostly on weapons. Iran and Syria buy relatively cheap Russian weapons and procure considerable stocks while spending less than Israel in the dollar terms. Saudi Arabia financed Pakistani nuclear program, and now receives the nuclear technology feedback. Pakistan reportedly keeps a number of nuclear warheads in Saudi Arabia. After Iran, Egypt, Libya, and Saudi Arabia go nuclear, Israel’s nuclear deterrent will deter no more. Israel will hope for conventional wars where all sides refrain from using nuclear weapons first, but Muslims are irrational. Devoid of the nuclear edge and unable to keep up the arms race, Israel will succumb to Muslim demands. Arabs won’t immediately push the Jews into the sea but rather use them as bargaining chips in dealings with America. Muslim tolerance to a nominally Jewish state is a currency on par with dollar. Unable and unwilling to persevere as a Jewish state, Israel will continue as Middle Eastern democracy, a sort of Mali. Leftists will convince the population that it is okay to abandon Jerusalem to Arabs and forget about Judea. Arabs will have no problem tolerating dhimmi Jews on the Palestinian beach strip and in the Negev desert. Under the cover of ethnic-blind democracy, Israel will allow free migration of Arabs, and Jews will become a minority living in ghettos.

South Africans dealt with their leftists before starting to deal with the Blacks. Israel didn’t eliminate Jewish leftists and will return to dhimmitude rather than instituting soft apartheid on the current South African model.
