Editor's note: The US State Department is a branch of the Pentagon doing what it does best: Selling weapons. We are terribly sorry to inform you there will be no peace deals here anytime soon. The US State Department under Blinken isn't about "peaceful settlement" or diplomatic negotiations. It's about selling more weapons as the US State Department has become a wing of the US military. As Russia (read The ruble for the first time became the main currency for settlements with Asian countries), China, North Korea and Iran establish BRICS (see The Four Powers Aligning) watch for even further record sales of US manufactured weapons. The US is saying, "Look, if you want to establish BRICS and have your own monetary and payment system, it will cost you a war." The monster 4000-page federal budget bill has $886 billion marked for "defense." The Pentagon is running the US economy just in case nobody has noticed.

State Department Approves $2.2 Billion in Arms Sales for Saudi Arabia, UAE

The deals include Hellfire and Sidewinder missiles and ammunition for artillery, tanks, and machine guns

by Dave DeCamp | October 14, 2024

The Biden administration has approved a series of arms sales for Saudi Arabia and the UAE, worth a combined total of $2.2 billion.

The Pentagon's Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) said on October 11 that the State Department approved one potential sale to the UAE for GMLRS precision-guided rocket systems, ATACMS munitions, and related equipment worth an estimated $1.2 billion.

The DSCA announced three separate deals for Saudi Arabia, which come after reports that said President Biden was preparing to resume selling "offensive" weapons to the Kingdom. One deal is for air-to-air Sidewinder missiles worth an estimated $251.8 million.

Another deal is for thousands of air-to-ground Hellfire missiles, which will cost about $655 million. The final sale is for a series of different types of ammunition for artillery systems, tanks, and machine guns.

The US sees the Gulf Arab states as potential allies in an Israel-Iran war, but Saudi Arabia has distanced itself from the US's defense of Israel, and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman recently hosted Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Riyadh.

The Saudis have also wanted nothing to do with the US’s bombing campaign against the Houthis in Yemen, which began in January. From 2015 to 2022, the US-backed Saudi Arabia and the UAE in a brutal war in Yemen, but a ceasefire has held relatively well since April 2022, although US sanctions are preventing the implementation of a lasting peace deal.

PATRICK LAWRENCE: De-Westernizing Ourselves

The deal here with the deep state's functional mode has always been to provide the technology to its "enemies" in order to justify increasing levels of weapon system development in their own country to take on future threats. This is how technology is advanced. The US now has a space command and this extension of the US military into space will need better more advanced weapon systems. It's an incredibly well honed operation and is probably how Iran got access to sophisticated drone technology. It worked before WWII with the US financing Germany and it worked with the Soviet Union providing them with technology and now it's China's turn:

This could only mean one thing: More lucrative weapon sales:

The bullshit subterfuge continues. This is about continued NATO weapon sales:

The US and NATO will continue providing Kiev with military equipment because it is extremely lucrative. Who cares if the Russian military destroys this equipment.
