Where is the self reliance? All these weapons are created by western countries. What happens in a war against them? These nomads would be destroyed

UAE actually had some products for display, eventhough the reason the exhibition was held in Dubai was because of the large cash they sit on.
Look again closely. Not all were western countries, some were Asians.
