3. Good to see you too!

Doing well, thank you for asking. Hope you are as well!

Definitely agree they view each other as allies and anchor points against Iran. Not sure how much money this would mean for Israel, but Iran is definitely threatening Saudi oil dominance in the Persian Gulf the value of which is well into the hundreds of Billions USD.

I also think the US is a not so subtle actor here as well given the US needs both players (as well as other Persian Gulf countries) to counter Iran as well. And they need our help as well. That is why we're fighting the Houthi in Yemen as well as why Trump assassinated an Iranian General back in his administration. Also why Trump has such a sweet financial deal with the Saudis - he basically has pimpled out the US military to do things the Saudis find too dirty to do. (He leveraged our needs and their needs to skim some money off of the top for himself).
