Saudi Arabian cattle are being fed on millions and millions of gallons of Arizona’s underground aquifers.
3,000 gallons of water per minute is used to grow alfalfa in Arizona which is then exported back to Saudi Arabia as cattle feed.
The fundamental question is whether Arizona's groundwater should primarily serve its residents or be utilized for Saudi Arabian livestock.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
