Better stick to Camels, they are not so sophisticated.

Do you suggest that the Saudis should invest in toys like Iranian showed us like week? it would be much safer, right. You Persian slaves don't know that every military training has its risks, and unfortunately there were casualties. RIP follow Arabs.
