Example Sentences
- "In the three and a half years since the start of the Second World War the Sa’udi king had received annually from Great Britain some £3 million in goods and silver coins, plus some £750,000 which Casoc advanced in 1941 and again in 1942 against royalties anticipated from post-war oil sales. But in the two years after the signing of the February 1943 Lend–Lease order some $33 million (nearly £8 million) in cash, goods and bullion flooded into Sa’udi Arabia from the USA on top of oil revenues, and Abdul Aziz was at least £1 million a year better off – for, in their eagerness to make up for lost time in Arabia, the Americans gave with both hands."

- "I’ve been visiting Saudi Arabia for close to two decades and in that time I’ve experienced some incredible things."
