| 0:00.0 | I've seen that you called the Iatola, come and eat the new Hitler of the Middle East. |
| 0:29.0 | Absolutely. At just 32, Muhammad bin Salman seems fearless and determined. He has quickly become the most dominant Arab leader in a generation. |
| 0:41.0 | Yeah, if you have any interest in Middle East politics, you really should watch that segment from 60 Minus Fact they did two segments on MBS as they call him, the most dominant leader in Arab politics and in generation. |
| 0:52.0 | Do you have anything on Polo horses this week? He's 32 years old, which is dang young. His dad is still the official king, but his dad pulled king strings to give his this particular son the sort of power that it takes to, you know, in effect, be the current leader of Saudi Arabia and end up being the leader in the future. |
| 1:14.0 | And his shouting nepotism is not very useful in a patriarchal monarchy. There are 30,000 princes or three thousands and thousands of princes, Saudi princes. There's many, many, many hundreds of whom he locked up in in the Ritz Carlton as a jail. Remember a couple of months ago said they're corrupt and we're stealing money from the people of Saudi Arabian. |
| 1:42.0 | And made him sign contracts, turn in some of the money over to the country as he tries to reform it. He got the most attention right from the beginning when he said, yeah, women can drive. And he was, by the way, he speaks perfect English. Why some of it was in Arabic and some of it was in perfect English. I have no idea. |
| 1:59.0 | I don't know if he gave it 60 minutes thought it gave it more credibility or what? |
| 2:05.0 | Quick note to the 10 year old girls listening, you might hear there are hundreds of princes there in Saudi Arabian. |
| 2:11.0 | Think that's the place to go to land a prince, but he won't find them very charming. So especially to women, MBS, maybe in the future, MBS got a lot of attention because one of the first things he did is say, yeah, women can drive. |
| 2:22.0 | And he was asked throughout the interview and he answered like unequivocally, no hedging whatsoever. Women or men's equals were really missing out by not having women's talents used in Saudi Arabia. |
| 2:33.0 | They have the right to do any job or do anything that that men do and make their own decisions. It's just ridiculous that we've done it this way. |
| 2:40.0 | I mean, without, without qualification, he said, wow. So it's pretty clear he believes all that stuff. He believes that in 1979, when the crazies took over in Iran, and then there was pressure in Saudi Arabia for the crazies to take over also. |
| 2:55.0 | And everybody started to adopting these weird women have to be covered up and all this sort of crap. He thinks that's just horrible. |
| 3:01.0 | Yeah. So when did that happen? 70 to 70's. Wow. Yeah. That whole fundamentalist woman wearing the beekeeper thing is mostly a creation of these fundamentalists. |
| 3:09.0 | Wacadus who came to the fore in the early 70's and then took power in Iran late 70's. It's presented by a lot of people, including some American media is like an ancient to tradition that we must respect. |
| 3:21.0 | And it's not it goes back to the 70's. Yeah, which is absolutely indefensible. And he said, MBS said he said, look at YouTube videos. Go back and look at YouTube videos of Saudi Arabia in the 50's and 60's and early 70's and see what it was like. |
| 3:34.0 | Well, hell, that's what bull Afghana Stan. He said, that's who we are. Yeah. He said, that's who we are for anybody because she started the question with Osama bin Laden came out of Saudi Arabia and almost all the hijackers. |
| 3:44.0 | How do you explain that to the American people as he's making this he's crossing the country this week to try to present the new view of Saudi Arabian. He said, go on YouTube. |
| 3:55.0 | Look at videos that that's who we are. That's where we're where we're going back to. That's the Saudi Arabia that is the real Saudi Arabia devil's advocate question because you're this spouted here and there that he's not a real reformer. |
| 4:09.0 | He's just trying to give off a good impression to encourage foreign investment because the Saudi regime knows they're desperate for diversification of their kind. |
| 4:18.0 | Boy, they absolutely are and they showed us many of the business meetings that they have weekly all the top money people him and everybody else. |
| 4:24.0 | How they because the oil thing the jig is up on that right and if it's and if it's not completely up, it's going to be completely up before you know it. |
