- Why would Frank Gardner want to return to the region where he so nearly lost his life? In this talk, Frank describes why the Middle East is so interesting and vibrant, and why he had to go back.
Now BBC Security Correspondent, Frank talks about his connection to the Middle East, why he loves this misunderstood and much-maligned region, and why young people should take up languages and travel the world.
A fluent Arabic speaker, Frank Gardner chose Arabic & Islamic Studies and went on to live with the Bedouin in Jordan. His fascination with the region continues today.
In 2004 Frank and his cameraman Simon were ambushed by terrorists while filming in Saudi Arabia. Simon was killed and Frank survived with extensive injuries. Returning to work, he was awarded the OBE by HM The Queen in 2005 for services to journalism, awarded Honorary Doctorates of Laws by six British universities and voted Journalist of the Year in the European Diversity Awards.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Hes gone through alot, its absolutely terrifying what happened to him yet he still doesnt judge the citizens based on some terrorists, i hope good things happen to him
الله يوفقه 👍
Such a fluent and articulate speaker. Thanks for uploading.
Highly recommend Franks book "Blood and Sand"
Got it right here
Amazing Man. I hold him in the highest possible regard.
I was 15 when frank was injured i remember hearing it on the news like it was yesterday.
Im originaly from tunisia i live in uk the frst time i found your web site i started to like you because your re frank you re amazing
You have such big heart ❤
One of my favorite Ted talks
must read blood and sand by him , great perspective
What a lovely speech
Seems to be a very smart guy. Great respect for him
Same apply for the rest of the world. There are some unpleasant people from every country in the world but generally most people in most countries are good.
an inspirational story I have read his book crisis he signed it
I love his trueness!
الحمدلله على سملامتك ...
An excellent source of info on the Middle East [including Israel] is Dr. Mordechai Kedar, a Lecturer in Arabic at Bar-Ilan University who also spent 25 years in Israeli Intelligence.
He doesn't pull punches......check him out on TH-cam being interviewed in Arabic on Al-Jazeera some years ago but he knows his stuff.
He also has a novel plan to suggest instead of the impossible to implement 2 State solution idea.
"Blood and Oil.... If it was only Sand" "No one would be interested in....
المصريين شعب طيب جداً
Nice message but I wish there was more substance
man thats not Fank Gartenschau this is defintiely Mushkat Almarat
he is from arab news
Even though it makes no sense to blame the arabs as a whole, it takes stoicism and good temperament to not let his experience color his view of the arabs and Muslims. He still loves the culture to which he devoted his whole life.
I would nt have put Morocco in the Middle East ..
probably because Morocco is part of the Arab League
Middle east and North africa are one region ; Im Moroccan Arab
12:40 well not because of that but to be honest saudi government really work for its own citizens : fast devoloping countery, allowing women to drive, almost free education and healthcare system, good jobs and high income... etc
why would they go out if their kingdom is working well?!
Anybody who is an avitive joel three verse three get it sorted Bible verse. Cough.
Apologist even after being shot. Height of delusion.
How does acknowledging that there are good and bad people everywhere make him an apologist. Also did you skip the part he said that the terrorists had attacked a place in Riadh and killed many people. Those people who were killed were Arab, Saudi, Middle Eastern and most probably Muslim so how on earth does it make sense to blame the 'arab world' as a whole.
💯agree
If you have 200 friends and a mugger attacks you one day, do you suddenly hate all your friends?
