- As the Trump administration nears its first anniversary, we are witnessing an approach that is new and different. “America First” naturally raises questions among allies and partners abroad about the scope and depth of U.S. involvement in world affairs. This year's Saban Forum discussions and webcast sessions focused on the U.S.-Israel relationship, the future of the Middle East, and much more.

Friedman was like "my father was my coach in life." Friedman asked MBS who was his coach in life and MBS answered "my father" then Friedman was like "he didn't have a coach in life"
😂😂👍
Father-in-law.
well Appreciated Interview by an intellectual political Analyst by their deep analytical Approach !!
We need transferred to Arabic for all this intrerviwo ?
Saudi wouldn't have gone to war in Yemen if the US did its job to maintain peace in Middle East. Instead it removes sanctions against Iran and doesn't condemn Houthis (Iran's 2nd arm after hezbullah) violent acts in Yemen.
This is interesting to watch with the Jamal Khashoggi case at the front of the news regarding Saudi Arabia. Will be interesting to see if this is a flash in the pan of the beginning of something far larger and more destructive.
I was surprised to find out that he attended one of bruce rediel's events. He even asked a question during the Q&A. It will be interesting to hear their take on it.
In short. Getting bigger and play the rule she should as Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
His passing remark about Aramco is hilarious, everyone knows a business loses it’s soul when brought to the gambling hall of NYSE.
قبل ثانية واحدة
Must have Freedom of religion in Saudi Arabia and no discrimination shall prevail because of birth, race, sex, opinion or any other personal or social condition or circumstance
there is a lot being said without words .. just by watching ...even the blind can see it...!
He looks afraid.
kel n why do you think he’s afraid ?
Ever see a tempered glass window break?? As external forces grow, the tempered window looks the same, not changing. As the forces grow, it does not flex or show any changes whatsoever. UNTIL, a breaking point is reached, and then the whole window shatters into bits. A regular window would have cracked sooner, leaving you with two pieces, that were still window-like
Well, the stresses in Saudi Arabia are growing faster and faster. The changes, I believe, are too small to avoid an eventual collapse.
I wonder what Tom Friedman thinks of MBS today. This talk has aged badly.
Hockey, Touch Football, Tee’ing off, Soft Ball, Hard Ball, Coaching, Golfing, Annoying bloody analogies, enough Sport, thank God for Martin S. Induk response about Diplomacy! And the question from that woman in the audience too, ah I gotcha, there were no questions from women!!
@Ismael Barrera I think the Human Rights Watch latest report on Saudi Arabia missed that useful insight "yeah but it's their country...' www.hrw.org/world-report/2020/country-chapters/saudi-arabia
Yesterday came to my mind that I should write a book and just now perhaps a succession of this book that all the Peoples and Countries would be interested and in want for reasons that would be of the best for neighboring labor's of purpose for the Name of Love. Can I do that for us. Yes of course I will ask for your help.
The man Tom Friedman said he would use jim baker as a coach. I wouldn't use that man at all. Just over a month ago Jim baker was involved with all that hillary Clinton fbi cover up. This guy needs to keep his thoughts to himself.
French special forces or Pakistani Special guards ?
My teenager period had been hijacked I don't care about what u said but thanks God at the last moment we have MBS finally
Imagine Saudi as a regional hegemony.
I couldn't stop moving my head back and forth, I fully agree with him in first 10 min.
The strongest kingdom in the Middle East needs a couch ?
He refers to upbringing of a person in charge of power, bc without standards, integrity, character building, moral compass, diplomatic skills, proper education in psychology, sociology, politics, its hard to be a skilled leader of any kind in any country.
From general scientific,international what legally rights available for Saudi Arabia
Thomas is a political genius.
Friedman is a sold agent
And
All of this lecture is complete BS
This was the most informative interview about the subject matter and by far. Mr. Saban, you cannot imagine the good that you are doing for this region that is galloping to a major explosion.
Saudi Arabia is heading to right direction...
The region will be in turmoil until the Hexagon Alliance achieves its objective to reduce the maximum number of the IFR and ID factors in the region and around the world. This alliance is undeclared and work is being done by the majority of the nations around the world to counter the two factors mentioned previously. I have been listening to the comments by leaders of the region and with the help of a system which I have named IRV. The year 2019 will take the region from bad to worse no matter what these analysts say in their discussion. Saudi Arabia, ten years from now will regret not mending their relationship with Iran by co-operating on the religious differences and geopolitical issues in the region.
I think and hope MBS is genuine in his vision for the future of his Kingdom. I would like the region to develop their own manufacturing base along with the service sector by setting up the innovation centres in order to be self-reliant. They should also develop their own agriculture enterprise by learning from countries who have delivered much more in produce with fewer resources at their disposal.
What is rights for Saudi Arabia related general scientist and general scientist globally peace
The Best Interview for kids loooool
I want to ask one question??
Why the whole world especially the west worried and busy ! what will the Saudi government will do in future and what will MBS will do ??
We have a strong relationship and believe in our leaders and those leaders are having enough experience to roll their country with the help of our nation !
At the same time we had many difficulties before and Allah helped our leaders to pass them!!
We are full of those junks who’s talking and lecturing about our future of our country ,,we built our country without a help of nobody and will continue to build it with our sincere and loyal societies,,, and keep your trash for ur selves!!
@57:25 Friedman meltdown rant starts.
I Really Like This Documentary MashaaAllah KSA Vision 2030 Léts Go
He is a real arabian but realy American.
Thomas Friedman, seriously

Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds. God Almighty has facilitated for Saudi Arabia all the reasons for survival, prosperity and attractiveness. Therefore, it must remain a wonderful Islamic model to which pure souls seek to secure their eternal future in the gardens of bliss, and do everything that pleases God, Lord of the Worlds.
What good is this all this noting will change
its all concept....there s no Truth what so ever....!
We are all in a game called evolution, wether liking it or not, lol.
Tremendous efforts to put reforms from theories to implementation,
Finally Saudi Arabia is making the necessary and historical reforms, leave women driving , cinemas and religious police aside, those are major issues and have been solved already. I'm talking about a renaissance, a culture blooming into reality , a culture that was repressed by the religious realm, an influential power that would not have existed if not for the mental issues caused and left by imperialism in the region , it had its effect even on Saudi Arabia, and now I can say that Saudi Arabia has been healed.
Well said
I guesd the Yememis would beg to differ. And the Lebanese too. Reform ? LMAO. MbS is caging anyone who is opposing him. So much for reform huh ? And one of MbS' mentors is Sheikh Saleh Al Fawzan who is among the least progressive of clerics.
i guess the syrians also differ on your views when it came to tapping assad on the back by your obama !
Very very nice copny I love you alf anarr

Saudis bank roll Brookings Don't expect expertise..
Related general scientist all subject Saudi Arabia closing
Need to consider the root cause of issues in the middle east especially in Saudi Arabia which is: dictatorship and you could not resolve the issues without removing the root. As an Iranian I like the idea of power sharing represented by Freidman, historically middle east is the Persian/Iranian interested area to secure Iranian boarders; so for short term solution power sharing with all stack holders is a key.Trump administration incapable to deal with Middle East problems and obviously it would failed; by looking at his cabinet arrangement and himself who belong to the far right wing of capitalism system where dealers are presented; he is only thinking to make money to boost US economy by selling his Beautiful weapon to others. Trump is not a diplomat nor a politician he is only a good negotiator to make money. this is not what Middle East needs. Middle east needs serious powerful diplomatic efforts ..so I think before thinking to find a person to coach Saudi crone prince first it is better to find right person to coach Trump not to make the Middle East situation worse than now.
Sun Flower i see you are so uneducated..at least search by google..Iran means the land of Arian...and most of the time during the history Middle East was only small part of big Persian Iranian empire...so you Semitic..better go educate yourself and speak logic...by bad words you cannot go no where only you make yourself very down which you are...
There is nothing called America first
China did a great job with Saudi
I think it is better for you two to check your eternal future instead of thinking about the future of Saudi Arabia.
his couch is mohammed bin zayed
Game? coach? WTF? Geopolitical problems shouldn't be described like that
What happened to Obama???
Never in my life have I seen so much bs being shovled.
In retrospect ...and if you are watching this in 2020 ..how much of what they said sound like facts to you?
Lots of Jews in the room.
Only NT can come up with this narrow, uneducated, and one sided interpretation.
Insulting our President turned me off from this vid
I"m sure I will get hammered for saying this... but.... I don't trust people to be telling the truth when they say .....um... ah... um... um...ah... um... in nearly every sentence ... irritating as hell.
Susie Williams he needs to rehearse more before interviews to look organized
Susie Williams I didn’t even notice until I read your comment, now I do, aggh :)
I stopped watching it at 5 min. ... I sensed something was not.
may Allah blesse Saudi Arabia and all Muslims
Abdul rahman 951478 the Saudi warmongers are Zionists. No Muslim.
it was us the Saudis who cut the oil supply on the Americans and supported the Egyptian Army until we get the Zionists Jews out of Sinai
And that is why the killed my King Faisal رحمه الله My father was with the Saudi force in Jordan against Israel
they hate us the most And we share them the same feelings
But they are just keeping their friends close and their enemies closer to fool the ignorants people to bring hate toward us
they even support the Iranian revelation to bring a Shia extremist government to stab us in the back making us busy not to help our Palestinian brothers to bring back our Jerusalem
the Crusaders have used some of these strategies before them
but in the end
ۚ وَيَمۡكُرُونَ وَيَمۡكُرُ ٱللَّهُ ۖ وَٱللَّهُ خَيۡرُ ٱلۡمَـٰڪِرِينَ
they plan, and Allah plans. And Allah is the best of planners.
Quran
Abdul rahman 951478 , do you think Allah is going to bless only Muslims. Muslims like you will never change but I still have some hope of Muslims using the brand new brain's they possess.
The Crusaders once said that they shall stay in Jerusalem until Jesus returns back
but in the end we get them out
we also take down both the Romans and The Persians while we are less in numbers and power
so don't be blind doing the same mistake every time Underestimating the others
وَظَنُّوٓاْ أَنَّهُم مَّانِعَتُهُمۡ حُصُونُہُم مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ فَأَتَٮٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِنۡ حَيۡثُ لَمۡ يَحۡتَسِبُواْ ۖ وَقَذَفَ فِى قُلُوبِہِمُ ٱلرُّعۡبَ ۚ يُخۡرِبُونَ بُيُوتَہُم بِأَيۡدِيہِمۡ وَأَيۡدِى ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ فَٱعۡتَبِرُواْ يَـٰٓأُوْلِى ٱلۡأَبۡصَـٰرِ
, and they thought that their fortresses would protect them from Allah; but [the decree of] Allah came upon them from where they had not expected, and He cast terror into their hearts [so] they destroyed their houses by their [own] hands and the hands of the believers. So take warning, O people of vision.
Quran 59 2
100% u right
toughts two need to be checked out
I noticed that the audience all are ex-American first class politicians. discussing how to influence a weak Saudi rules that lacks experience and over confident, also lacks professional advisers as I assume no one wants to be his adviser if what ever recommendation they may give won't be taken seriously, and always to take the blame for anything goes wrong!
Don’t forget USA is the biggest ally of Saudi Arabia
All activate of Saudi Arabia illegally out in the hunder rules regulations
So saad. End of the petrol era. Um um um um uh uhm ah um uh uh

He needs a coach from Israel... he is coached by israel... he will be coached by israelis...
No where does the differences in practice of Islam between so many groups fighting with each other crops up!sure,even prophet Mohammed would not have contemplated so many versions...the Sunny,the Shia...wahabi......and the fighting that goes on between various groups in the Middle East!as Sir Bertrand Russell put it that as long as the religion gets the drivers seat,economic ,social,gender inequalities are bound to remain in the society's!

Do u really want to believe 2 CIA people ?

wtf does this guy really believe what he is throwing
i real like this hop the middle east get better any country that supports so call terrorist iran or Saudi or pakistan to get punished for pain they casue to millions of peopl
I no haf baba
I am a saudi citizen
The last 3 minutes is so true and just on the point
I used to be international student before 2012 and i decided to immigrate to the west as i lost the hope on the whole area
Now i changed my plan
I think the change is coming with a lot of possible mistakes as part of any change movement
MBS is young, He is investing in his people and we are investing in him as a future king
We know that he has all the potentials to be a great leader
Revolution is not a possible choice in saudi arabia as we learned from Arab spring
Arabic spring was a disaster
The corruption in society is worse than corruption in government with very low average age which with , illiteracy rate + lack of political control turns to be a total mess
MBS is working on society and on government at the same time
The average person in the west looks to an area with total of 400 M populations based on biased press and start to release judgment, if what we think matters then just listen to us
Forget to mention i enjoyed the talk
Regards
How are you doing rn ?
I’m a Saudi and I’m just wondering what’s your opinion on KSA know ?

Saudi Arabia is heading to beautiful future
You are liying mister freidmanhow many dollars did you receive from salman
Those woh are blaming Saudia for the situation in Yamen are either ignorant or forget who invaded the Capital, threw the legitimate government and took over by force? We all know the Hothies baked by Iran did that. So those who still blame Saudia, should really blame themselves and their mindset for the bad situation in Yemen and the suffering of children.
fahad alblaies Saudi backed Hadi government was meant to be for two years till they come up with political solution for a independent government representing all Yemenis. His time had passed plus additional two years that was illegal by the agreement! And tribal and ethnic power struggle of Yemen existed for centuries and in the past decades they had massacred houthis brutal crackdowns women and children burnt alive in mountain caves because they demanded their rights! Problem is Saudis want to rule all and refused to share power with Yemenis! And its their country not Saudis. We seen same with Qatar and Egypt then hariri of Lebanon forced to resign! Asad must go in Syria, Pakistan and Egypt must fight for us in Yemen because our soldiers are well fed fat pussies who hide behind Americans and other arabs just like with Iraq! You bash your women thinking you’re tough. Nobody likes you but take your money! Even tiny Qatar refused to take orders and laughed. You are weak like a indoor pet if you venture out you get killed. Law of nature.
I have no idea where you are from, but your language represents typical paradigm agiainst Saudis engraved over the years by leftist Arabs and now being promoted by so called Muslim BRotherhood. I think you need ad your paradigm shift before you can make sound political conclusions. If you have deep hatriate against certain people, you will only be able to use bad words against them but surely doesn’t make you right.
Lol.
Greater Israel Plan.
Friedman was pathetic, the other guy was honest and serious!
Hommm
Hes got a coach & he is Raheel Sharif plus there are brilliant Saudis that will surprize the world, the US desperately want to put their coach but this Crown Prince is no idiot.
By the way it was Pakistani Commandos that neutralized the siege of Kaba.
Just as the collapse of the Soviet Union came suddenly, I think the collapse of the Saudi monarchy will happen suddenly. I think its current reform process is coming too little and too late. The Yemen war is a strategic mistake of colossal proportions.
History has shown that foreign wars, even successful ones, presage governmental restructuring at home. That will likely be the significant outcome of the Yemen war -- changes inside Arabia.
THE MOST REAL IMPORTANT THING IS WHAT ALLAH WILL IS , NOT WHAT PEOPLE SAY OR THINK.
Lol
Everything these gentlemens are telling totally correct.i am planing to escape from this country.
The king of themide east are crupt and the kings goin to give back to the poo people in vinacla elasado The congo you stolon form the poor poor
bla bla bla ... no logic !!!
Unfortunately, they were working in the diplomatic field and are still so shallow.
Basically, he dropped by to meet with Bin Salman to get his check and somehow, miraculously he became an expert on the Fascist regime of Saudi-Arabia.
for God's sake. stop BS..... fascist regimes is what usa always supported AND made $ from. PS. actually all of the developed world as well ! so STOP THIS GENERALIZED HYPOCRISY . $ IS MADE , YOU people are benefiting from it and happy to earn it any way that needs be earned with.
I am muslim and cannot agree more with TonyBanderas...

They plan but ALLAH plans best
Allah loves Saudi, that’s why he made their Muslims enemies stupid.
Your name states what you believe in: 🤑
Hugely interesting...MBS must succeed..but he cannot do it alone
They know what is apparent of the worldly life, but they, of the Hereafter, are unaware.----------------------------ABOVE ARE WORDS ,ALLAH REVEALED DISCRIPING KIND OF PEOPLE. SINCE LIFE IS THAT SHORT ,MY ADVICE TO CHRISTIANS AND JEWS IS TO TRY NOT TO BE OF THIS KIND.
Pakistan finishing in the hunder general scientist globally peace butt Saudi Arabia including world war mafia group Pakistan illegally attacked to Pakistan and general scientist and general scientist globally peace
Nothing screams Saudi Arab Spring than to shout it from the back of MBS's $500 million Yacht, while watching his $450 million painting hanging on the wall of his $340 million mansion...
We young Saudis believe in Mohammed Bin Salman, and as he said; we’ll not waste another 30 years fighting radical extremists, we’ll destroy them now and immediately and return to our moderate islamic faith. God bless Saudi Arabia🇸🇦💚!
please tell me what is moderate in islam, true islam is like ISIS, that is how Mohammed conquered the region, spreading islam is a code word for invading countries and everything in it from gold to women will be booty of war.
what do you say now?
