Debate: The West Should Cut Ties With Saudi Arabia
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 мар 2019
- On the Intelligence Square stage the BBC’s star international correspondent Lyse Doucet chaired a line-up of Middle East experts including Mehdi Hasan. Who’s right and who’s wrong? Hear the arguments and decide for yourself.
The comments are not disabled when it comes down to criticizing Saudi Arabia. When there was a debate about “ Anti Zionism is anti semitism” all of the sudden the comments are disabled.
I think we can all agree that it would be an all out Digital War there so I can sorta see why they'd close off the comments there
@@stealthyspy1012 The same could be said about this debate. But the comments are open here.
@@rrraynoorrr true but the overall impact seems it me more louder with the Palastine-Israel conflict than the Saudi Arabia issues. Or at least that's how I think of it
Well You can post whatever you want to say about the "anti-zionism is anti-semitism" right here.
yeah, what's up with that?
OK, How come there are comments abled for this talk but not for the Israeli talk?
It's almost like they themselves didn't agree with their end result that anti-zionism isn't anti-semitism lol
I know right
I bet you could figure that out if you thought about it for a minute...
THANK YOU!!!! That's my point!
If there will be racist comments against Arabs here, the comments here they will be closed also
Mehdi would make an amazing lawyer. He ends the debate and convinces me even if he is the 1st speaker.
A lawyer is nothing. He needs a bigger stage. How about Ambassador or Secretary of the State.
3 years later "The west is looking to strengthen ties with Saudi Arabia".
Wish Mahdi sees this comment 😂😂😂😂lol this fella really thinks the west should cut ties with Saudi Arabia!The west needs Saudi Arabia more than everything now
Who else can we sale arms to to go and kill Muslims? I understand the Zionist regime is doing just that but they won't buy the arms, they get it for free., more than $3Billion each year.
the wc🤡🤡
Saudi people are blind deaf and dumbed by the system of government, they have no right to see the true world from different eyeglasses unless their Saudi style, or will behead or lose their freedom, or will be chopped like Khashoggi, or should scare all their life in their skin if talk truth,
@Beek Hock in da Hos he can do that! He is a Shia and supports Iran !
Love how in the Zionism debate they said "why doesn't this guy talk about Saudi Arabia instead of Israel?
Saudi is the culprit!
And that’s how I ended up here.
i cracked it. it's psychopaths. their condition is genetic and evolved around exploiting empathy through language. the estimate of 1% might as well have been pulled out of a hat as they can not be studied. there could be as many as 5% of them. they collect in positions of power as they outcompete others and it is clear to me that psychiatry is a field that is saturated with psychopaths. they can identify each other, a hustler can always spot another hustler and they have a shared interest in keeping the game tipped in their favour. their edge is contingent upon the ignorance of the majority, and so they strive to maintain that ignorance. this is not conspiracy. this is a natural order that breeds conspiracy and oppression and has done since ancient times.
Saw it yesterday. Great observation!
That guy who asked was an idiot
Now do the video "The West Should Cut Ties with Israel"
That will be the day
If that happens, everybody would live in harmony and peace lol

I love Mehdi. He's so well-spoken and knowledgeable - as seen in this debate and the Zionism debate. He's passionate enough about the subject but not in a tacky way.
He's being a little immature and emotional as opposed to measured and precise.
@@sayem619 immature? What are you talking about?
@@cyberanon2463 his arguments are all over the place
@@sayem619 if that was the case then nobody would vote for him. Half the people come there just to listen to his speech. The people are not suffering from an illusion, he makes perfect points backed by trusted sources which he always point out. Also the whole time he talked about the reasons the west should cut ties with saudi arabia which is 100% related to the topic of this debate
Mehdi Hassan is a twelver shia Indian Muslim. I consider him biased. India has many Muslim with Neo Ottoman views who wanted to revive Turkish Ottoman empire over Arabs.
This is why most Indian Muslims such as Deobandis Barelvis and other still follow texts that are anti Arab.
They are not anti Saudi they are anti ARAB altogether.
West, mainly US and Britain have double standards.
George Stacey Exactly!
Sure you are correct but also Al Jazeera is the platform for all Islamic Radicals... Qatar and Turkey are the ones who are parenting ISIS... (Not used in Yemen)... Can't you use some logic and think why Al Jazeera is still againist the Egyptians revolution against Muslims brotherhood and calling our revolution a Coup but the numbers of voters to Al Sisi has driven the sectarian Turkey ruler Erdogan crazy....
Only Terrorists condemn Saudi's, and colonialist are preparing the media for another made Iraq and Syria and another Libya which is Process.
If you think that Al Jazeera is the voice for the MiddleEast is like thinking that Hamas is not a Israilian made authority... Dear Western you are brain washed....

Medhi Hassan is my man. Outspoken, brilliant and funny. He carries the light of Islam the way this great religion was meant to be. I was born Christian and I will remain Christian, but I have the greatest respect for Islam the way it describes our God and the way to Him. No religion is as misunderstood and back stabbed in the western world as Islam and our media makes people believe that Islam is the way IS and Saudi Arabia portrait their religion. Nothing could be further from the truth.
As a muslim, I feel courageous and motivated every time I watch Mehdi. May Allah bless you to do more awesome work

Next one: should the west/most countries in general cut ties with Israel
Spoiler alert: the answer is yes
No. Israel is a good country. Every civilized country have good friendship with Israel.

Mehdi’s signature move is good *delivery* of facts to the debate 🔥
Heart rate goes up when he is talking
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: If anyone memorized ten verses from the beginning of surat Alkahf, he will be protected from the trial of Dajjal. In another narration: From the closing of surat Alkahf. Allah grants success.
Dajjal is ataturk that destroyed islam in turkey hearth of old ottoman

I love that there's a lot of young people there. This is an antidote against indoctrination as they get to see both sides of the issue, and it's pretty obvious who's in the right side of history.
indoctrination is like wearing a burqhka but than one for the brain.
BOTH sides of the story?
The story only has ONE side.
Turkish Ottoman empire ruled Palestine and Mecca and Medina.
Neo Ottomans dont want Arabs to rule Mecca and Medina and they dont want Jews to have Israel.
Indian Muslims support Turkish Ottoman empire and want Jews and Arabs gone. This is why Indian Muslims didnt want Pakistan to be created because then Pakistan will have been in the 'British' camp.
Jamal Kashoggi was a Neo Ottoman Turk who brainwashed Bin Laden into imposing khilafah over Muslims and Kashoggis supplied weapons to terrorists worldwide.
Mehdi Hassan=Superb
His excellent speech is always powerful. I love this kind of energy.
Why is the entire conference ignore the elephant in the room. ARMS SALES.
THANK YOU. I nearly did a spit-take when Blunt advised against cutting ties in the fear that it would create a civil war in Saudi Arabia. If the royal family in the UK was an oppressive totalitarian regime routinely violating human rights against its own citizens, all thanks to a foreign country supplying them with weapons and military equipment... I wonder what he'd say if that country then decided that it was best for them to keep supplying the regime with weapons as to not spark a civil war? I'd bet my left nut that he'd take his chance with a civil war in a heartbeat.
If the only reason why there's no civil war is because your supplies help keep the crushing foot of the regime over any form of opposition, you are not keeping the peace, you are feeding and enabling a monster.
it was mentioned by Hassan but gov England will not do >>>> money
So much admiration for Mr M Hassan. SALUTE FROM AUSTRALIA
Farina Marcina Murders from all right wing extremists are bad, White Supremists and Islamic extremists. One evil does not cancel each other
@ Farina Marcina - Islam literally means - being in state of peace! Please dont live in hate of someone but educate yourself! People in west are educated + reasonable, and hence adopting Islam today - despite their warring leaders/media (esp in US).
Don't be fooled, this Mehdi Hassan is a wolf in sheeps clothing. He is of Pakistani descent and is employed by Aljazeera, the mouthpiece of Hamas and international terrorism. Pakistan is the hub of International terrorism. The country is full of madrasas, indoctrinating the next generation of terrorists. Aljazeera has not made a documentary about the terrorists camps in Pakistan. Brenton Tarrant, a white supremacist and the Christchurch murderer, spent some time in Pakistan, and speaks highly of the country. Very suspicious.
Farina Marcina you are missing the basic point here Farina, that terrorism has no place in any religion. Let alone Islam which literally means peace.

I think this type of a debate, would be central to changing the lives of millions of people if organised in countries that have devastating side effects from having toxic ties with nations like Saudi Arabia. Where cutting ties would mean putting an end to cultural influences from Saudi Arabia and thus would mean revising, rebuilding and maintaining authentic cultural and societal systems of those effected nations.
Saudi Arabia is a complex situation says Crispin.
But Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan...They were a lot easier to deal with....Clearly
They created Saudi Arabia why would they want to destroy what's already theirs they control all Muslims if they control Saudi Arabia they knew this in the early 1900s
They should cut ties with Pakistan too.
@@jusme4142 ABAY SALAY
This one of the worst things that I have ever seen. First what happened in SAUDIA Arabia is not there business we are happy with our government and I do not understand from where they have the right to teach other people how do they live their won live also they don’t have any right to Ruling, mocking, or demanding a change in the system of government in a country that is not their country. STOP TALKING ABOUT SAUDIA ARABIA leave us alone. Also They are talking and expressing their opinion in a country in which they have not live. I am from Saudi Arabia, and it is the best government in the world in terms of consideration for its people. As for their war on Yemen, did you know that Yemen, which requested Saudi assistance in its war against the Houthis, and that Saudi Arabia received Yemeni refugees, did you know that Saudi Arabia took care of their treatment? And their studies, even at university, and that they have the same right as any Saudi, and did you know that Saudi Arabia is now undertaking a project to remove mines in Yemen at a cost of $40 million?
The King Salman Center has provided aid to Yemen with a value of $9 billion so far
The UAE is restoring schools and rehabilitating children recruited by the Houthis

After the first speaker Mahdi Hassan, the debate became irrelevant to me. It is difficult to see how anyone can argue in support of Saudi Arabia in the year 2020. So it is alright to keep women under subjugation, to continue genocide in an already impoverish country? If not for its oil, Saudi Arabia will be an irrelevance to the greedy western countries. Hope Mahdi Hassan is taking adequate measures for his own personal protection. The Saudi Arabians do not take kindly to such open criticism of its regime.
Agboola Daniel I can’t agree enough with your statement!
Totally agreed👍👍
I had to double check what year we were in.
It has never been more vital to support Saudi than now. They currently have a leader, in Mohammad bin Salman, who is making genuine progress at slowly reforming the country. If we forsake him now, and his political opposition (the Wahhabists) gain influence and power, Saudi will slip back down the path it’s slowly crawling out of.

I'm guessing that they blocked the comments on the Israel debate because it could have a lot of anti-Semitic comments which would give the video a low rating for the algorithm which would lose their channel a lot of advertisers money
but on a debate about Saudi where it's equally expected that there could be a lot of comments that are islamophobic, the comments are not blocked.
that shows how acceptable it is to be islamophobic that advertisers don't mind it

from the Fact That Saudi Arabia DOES NOT RECOGNIZE ROGUE ISRAEL Whilst it is forced to work with USA it doesn't mean KSA approves of USA
ZIOIsraHELL with ZIOIsraHELL puppets - the ZIOCon fundagelical dominionist reconstructionist End of Times wackos, the ZIOCon US Executive Branch and ZIOCon Congressional Military Industrial Complex and FumbDuk Saudi Arabia are the 'axis of evil' on this planet presently. Not Iran.
@Lando Calrissian true true true.... they 're not a good representation of Islam at all.
@Bill Christian that is a very unusual way to protect the faith of Islam... I think they 're doing the reversal.... I mean look at the misconception of Muslims all over the world...
Mehdi Hasaan, the personification of...A TOUGH ACT TO FOLLOW. I trust that he researches everything, ppl like that can put a spin on anything if so they will. I am a great fan.
Me too he knows what he says and doesn't stall and lie he says it how it is
i saw the "Anti- Zionism is Anti Semetism" one and he absolutely wrecked them, they had no chance
@@amalbackerfysal9292 yes
@@amalbackerfysal9292 Not really, it amounted to a special pleading argument on Mehdi and Pappe's part. It was built on the same fallacious grounds right-wingers use to argue against nationalism amongst colonized peoples.
@@Justanothaguy Well my personal opinion is what i expressed
Pleading is another form of winning in a debate. Really depends on how you debate. Some change attention to opponents some to the judges some to the jury.
Certainly Truth spoken by Mahdi Hasan
Well done Mehdi Hassan ❤️
I also want my own country, The United States, to start obeying international law and become a social democracy. I don't believe the United States should be given a pass any more than any other country gets a pass. When I say cut ties I don't mean cut all contact but I do mean we shouldn't be allied countries
Yea, well that's not what cutting ties means.
@@bdan6954 Doesn’t it mean to treat the country as neutral entity, completely uninvolved because I think we really do need that.
Thank God your not running the State Department.
@@darbyheavey406 have fun with your dictatorship state
The US will never be socialists.. never going to happen.. why would you destroy something that's done better than anyone else? That's suicide
Mahedi is a true speaker and brave man. U are my inspiration.
They can’t cut ties with Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 because of the honey 🍯 money 💰 Hahahahahaha 😂
Mahadi is, best intellectual with big data, best speaker I have ever seen, long live for my hero
I agree to cut ties with Saudi for sashes crime, why you aren't doing it against Israel?
Saudi Arabia was made to pay every criminal that USA makes to use against Islam or Muslim countries to distablize.

Just heard Mehdi Hasan's opening. Brought me to tears. Wow!
Al Jazeera is the platform for all Islamic Radicals... Qatar and Turkey are the ones who are parenting ISIS... (Not used in Yemen)... Can't you use some logic and think why Al Jazeera is still againist the Egyptians revolution against Muslims brotherhood and calling our revolution a Coup but the numbers of voters to Al Sisi has driven the sectarian Turkey ruler Erdogan crazy....
Only Terrorists condemn Saudi's, and colonialist are preparing the media for another made Iraq and Syria and another Libya which is Process.
If you think that Al Jazeera is the voice for the MiddleEast (Fact: Its founders are members in the Knesset) is like thinking that Hamas is not a Israilian made authority... Dear Western you are brain washed....
@@xunqianbaidu6917 I am from Egypt where tens of people were killed days ago by muslims brotherhood which is funded by Qatar and Mehdi hassan is not shedding tears for them... just because we expelled their Brotherhood ruler in our revolution that your media called a COUP because you could not turn us into the way you could in Syria and Currently Libya... I need to know which point you want me to elaborate or proof.
@@yasserdarwish6609 You're acting like the Saudis weren't funding and equipping wahab mosques worldwide with weapons.
The (Wahab) claim is meaningless nowadays, because the people being killed (Killers' Target=Muslims) and COUNTRIES destroyed are not from Wahabi...Leaving the facts about the Western media protecting Terrorism and supporting its logistics and transportation (like from Syria to Libya) is Hypocrisy... to stand for one accusation about (a Political activist with no proof) and leaving thousands of laymen and human beings are not only a Selective Justice and a double standards.. but this is SELFISH GREED, GUILT and Ignorance.
@@yasserdarwish6609 You are a very smart man, my friend. Respect.
You may or may not like him, but Mehdi sure is one of the greatest, most eloquent people of our time. Absolutely fantastic 👏🏻👏🏻
And every country has its own way of governing itself. Saudi Arabia is an Islamic monarchy and it runs as per the shariah law. Definitely don’t need a 2 cent journalist telling the world what to do and talk about world politics. They could have invited someone more respectable and reputable than Mahdi to speak about these issues. It’s an absolute shame!
Mehdi hasan is the type of journalist who makes the opposition say well done to his points
and the 2nd one is an ass....
All countries should cut ties with saudi arabia
Us senator: yeah but who's gonna pay our bribes.
Yes yes
israel
i cracked it. it's psychopaths. their condition is genetic and evolved around exploiting empathy through language. the estimate of 1% might as well have been pulled out of a hat as they can not be studied. there could be as many as 5% of them. they collect in positions of power as they outcompete others and it is clear to me that psychiatry is a field that is saturated with psychopaths. they can identify each other, a hustler can always spot another hustler and they have a shared interest in keeping the game tipped in their favour. their edge is contingent upon the ignorance of the majority, and so they strive to maintain that ignorance. this is not conspiracy. this is a natural order that breeds conspiracy and oppression and has done since ancient times.
@@edenwylie8917 psychopath and physicalists ie. ppl who strongly live with the view that mind is just a word for parts of the brain
Correction "EVERYONE SHOULD CUT TIES WITH THE WEST".
Mehdi is soo intelligent
WoW they should cut ties with Saudi Arabia & let Iran & Israel closer.
Dear brother Mehdi Hassan, you are gifted. So proud! Your parents did you right by naming you Mehdi Hassan. We need more people from our community in the world to stand up.
Exactly.
I never thought that someone would read my mind. Mehdi is doing Islsm a great good. Bless him
I have learned so much from him!
Mehdi is intricate with all his information. He should run the media world wide.
@saviour of hoes
you wish ! Mahi is intelligent and passionate .
he can run the Love Politics Island from his zionist channel Al Jazeera.
@@fatimazenasni1880 He is just sooo emotional like any actor... no single proof or FACT.
I am Egyptian who spelled Muslim Brotherhood out with Al Jazeera and ISIS.
1) Who calls the terrorism in Syria (Moderate opposition)????? Arabs/Saudi or the West with Al Jazeera their fake platform for Arabs???
2) Who asked for clean and safe transportation of terrorism from Syria and supervised it????
3) Who supplies them in Libya against the Libyan sovereignty???
4) who direct their media to cry over killing (Like Aleppo) to defend ISIS???
5) CURRENT SITUATIION: Who cries when the Libian sovereign national army cleans their OWN country from them??? Who ordered for (Fly free zones) to protect ISIS when they are loosing????????????????????????????? ?????????? ?????????? ??????????????????????
wasn't Al Jazeera happy about that!!!!!!!
6) Who raises Mehdi Humanitarian claims only when it comes to attacking ISIS???
7) Do you know where has ISIS been geographically before you talk??... (Sheltering>>>STARTING) Then Back and returning when they lose.... Where are they now what are their borders!!!! SAUDI?????????
8) Do you know what Language do ISIS terrorists speak????
9) Who gives ISIS free speech, gathering and cultivation... and safe Marching/Protesting in their own civilized countries to attack others????
10) Mehdi Just made ISIS Civilized when he called Saudi Country (an ISIS that is made)... this guy just said that ISIS-Like country is currently dealing with the rest of Islamic world and normally treated and considered... he just insulted Muslims in order to go along with his PAYBILLS from the Sectarian Al Jazeera.... The same happened from the other woman when she mentioned (Gehad) stereotyping it the same way of any nonmuslim misquoting it. SHAME ON MONEY SHAME ON YOU.

@@yasserdarwish6609 1)no2)couldn't be helped the needs of the many outweighed the threat of a few but it shouldn't of got there anyway 3) the west and it shouldn't of happened the people never wanted it but our politicians are so far up Americans arses it happened 4)Al Jazeera I take it as it didn't happen in the uk the zones were not to protect ISIS but innocents caught up in the middle of it but I would guess some ISIS soldiers got away with them 6)medi is not on the side of ISIS I've seen him debate a lot I have to admit since he moved to America not so much 7)sorry are you saying ISIS commanders and there men are now in Saud.I can't read anymore of.your comment and answer on this page and I'm not arguing with you admitting I dont know, asking and saying where I think your wrong
@@yasserdarwish6609 8)they must speak many languages as people from all over have gone to join but we have been led to believe a lot of there commanders were officers high up in Saddam Hussein's army 9)the west unfortunately as our leaders are blind and stupid when it comes to that I dont know about Saudi 10)no he never flip it to the other side he was trying to taint Saudi as been as bad as ISIS but having a state to act from not make ISIS civilsed but your right in the end it all comes down to money a group of officers and ex officers in the uk have got together and tried to stop it and apart from the first day when they made their announcement have had no mainstream media at all now they know what the officers want to do it's a disgrace and the leadership media and ISIS should all be put in a cage and shot I would like to know more if you dont mind peace to you and yours
Great debate I like it👍👍👍👍
Wow, the lady from Britain was so good. Spoke so fearlessly. God bless you.
Though distant dream......
Hope this style of debating a topic prevails in Indian NATIONALISTIC media....
Muzzafar Lone or the Pakistani military backed uber nationalistic media.
Maybe after a century, after people like Mr. Gowswami have long left the planet.

yasser darwish you must not be listening there was a fucking list did you miss it or can you just not be bothered to do any research for yourself
yasser darwish it seems your hatred for the Americans have blinded you to the misdeeds of others also you realise this is majority ksa backed by the west witch is the entire point
Side note how was Pakistan and turkey never mentioned not that it matters i guess
@@shanehull6235
1) The list: I can bring you a list from anywhere in the world that condemns its government. (Deeds taken upon Priorities justify Honesty or Hypocrisy and Greed)
2) I do not hate Americans/British people nor any layman whatever his school of thought or ideology or emotion is... I am against BBC(British) that runs the rest of CNN&FOX(American) DW(German).... even a guy walking in the streets of the colonial entity known as Israel I do not hate him.
3) QATAR, Turkey, and Iran (current rulers not people) ... basically any Ruler with a desire to expand... any colonial desire. Pakistan as for my knowledge does not fall in this category.
4) Qatar and Turkey current rulers have been the main supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood groups in all of the muslim countries that is why they are hated... and coz this is against the sovereignty of my country Egypt I am against them the most because they are colonials and the agents of the colonials.
The opposition seems inclined more towards "does not want to stop the golden goose laying golds"
That shouldn’t even be a debate. You become who you associate with.
If you want to debate Mehdi Hasan, you better do your research well.
I sure will thanks.
Mehdi Hasan is muslim shia so Of course he against Saudi
Now Muslims around the world are started to wonder if Shia and Sunni really exist? Or just a political card?
We have Quran and saheeh Hadith I think it’s enough for Muslims. Labelling will not get us anywhere.
Well said AH Shadows, thats the true Islam
Black Fox thanks 🙏 really my brother
I swear Mehdi Hassans is the Best debater and the Funniest 😂
Western countries talking about Morals and Ethics. How ironic!!
4 years later and nothing has changed.
MEDHI HUSSAIN is an outspoken excellent speaker and he does his homework and that is the reason he is successful. May Almighty God bless you. My team and I have been watching you almost as much as we can. Thanks for your wonderful speach and time.
Hi Intelligence Squared, please put the names of all speakers in the description. Thanks
I don't have to watch the debate till the end of it to know who won, if Mahdi takes part, you know who wins!!! I am a big fan of MAHDI!
Is the last speaker from opposition supporting the motion or what?
