Hello, brother. Thank you for your video and comments. You speak with genuine passion and conviction, and I agree with most of what you said, except for the part about the petro-dollar. At the time, Saudi Arabia was in a very different situation. The deal that was made wasn’t just about money-it began with the promise that the country wouldn’t be harmed or invaded. The nation was on the brink of a major conflict that could have led to our invasion, and the deal was the best option to secure the kingdom’s future. However, when Obama began interfering with Gulf and Arab countries during the Arab Spring and empowering Iran, it was clear that this agreement had been broken. I completely agree with your points about hiring American companies and the brilliance behind the petro-dollar strategy, but when the U.S. started doing exactly what they had promised not to do, the deal became null. Now, regarding the protection of our land, we all know that it is ultimately in God’s hands. But as God said, we must take action, build, defend ourselves, and avoid putting our people in harm’s way. There’s no doubt that when we are faced with situations where no lives can be saved and all paths lead to suffering, we will stand firm. I won’t say we will be like Yamani, whom I respect greatly, but we will be like our ancestors-the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) companions. May Allah bless them all. Vision 2030 is proof that Saudi Arabia has moved beyond the old deal. The main goal of this transformation is to end dependency on oil. In the past, much of the wealth was spent by the royal family, but that has now been significantly cut. The money is being reinvested into the country’s infrastructure to diversify the economy. Moreover, Saudi holdings in the U.S. Treasury have been declining, and a recent deal with China to sell oil in their currency reflects this shift. Saudi Arabia is carefully concluding the old deal, but you can’t sever ties with a superpower overnight. Nonetheless, the change is clearly happening.
As per my knowledge king Faisal ,showed, absolutely not,type behavior and america had to face tough time without oil supply from Arabs , that's why they murdered shah Faisal by a technique by involving the family member of shah Faisal in the matter.
It is the timeless tale of how the West single-handedly invented modernity while everyone else was napping in the desert. It’s always refreshing to hear that narrative dusted off and paraded around. First, when oil “happens to be under our land,” it’s called our natural resource, not a free-for-all prize for whoever shows up with the fanciest gadgets. Technological advancement doesn’t come with a clause that says, “And thus, all your resources belong to us.” But let’s indulge in this historical oversight for a moment. Do you enjoy algebra? Thank the Persian mathematician Al-Khwarizmi, whose work laid the foundation for modern mathematics. The very algorithms that make computers and the internet possible are named after him. So every time you fire up that device to proclaim Western superiority, you’re standing on the shoulders of Middle Eastern scholars. Fancy medicine? Avicenna's Canon of Medicine was the medical bible in Europe for centuries. Those “modern” medical practices might look a tad different without his contributions. Were they gazing at the stars through a telescope? Middle Eastern astronomers like Al-Battani were charting the heavens with remarkable precision while Europe debated whether bathing was hazardous to health. And as for preserving knowledge, during the so-called Dark Ages, the scholars of the Middle East safeguarded and expanded upon the works of the Greeks and Romans. Without them, the Renaissance might’ve been a non-starter. Intriguingly, you’re using technology reliant on mathematical concepts and innovations from the Middle East to argue that they haven’t contributed anything. Irony much? So, while the West has made significant strides, it’s part of a global tapestry of human achievement. Dismissing the profound contributions of other cultures doesn’t just rewrite history-it diminishes the collective progress we’ve all benefited from. Perhaps next time, a little less chest-thumping and a bit more appreciation for the diverse roots of modern civilization would be in order. After all, progress didn't start when you decided to invade the native's land. And by the way, there were engineers in other countries you know!! Before Operation Paperclip”

This was a fantastic breakdown of the the situation between Saudi Arabia and the United States of America. The only point which I beg to differ is the suggestion that King Faisal was somehow 'hoodwinked' into the Petro Dollar deal. I believe he signed up to this deal because it ensured his family would remain in a position of Leadership forever. Absolutely Brilliant breakdown Sir.
That is a valid perspective, affording the king and excuse us about as much as can be done before committing to the idea that he entered into this agreement wilfully and intentionally (such a pill is very hard to take, in all honesty). Many thanks 👍🏽
To piggy back off of that comment, ultimately this is usury, and a act against Allah (eliminating gold for monopoly papers) this along with other acts that are against our religion have put us in the state that we are in. May Allah have mercy on us.
Look at the thumbnail, king Faisal is portrayed with devil horns and Henry Kissinger, security-adviser of Nixon, sits relaxed with his back to 'devilish' king: no worries. Kissinger, he could probably be listed in top 5: pure evil men of last two centuries. He was intelligent, sick and very sick! He was known for his illegal type of warfare and deepdark quotes like; "The illegal we do immediately, the unconstitutional takes a little longer". He was a Jew, but he said outrageous things about Soviet Jews. His illegal and unconstitutional actions had real-world consequences; more then six million victims in Indochina, Cambodia, Vietnam and who knows where else. Amazingly this w*rcr*m*n*l, despite accusations by critics, got a Nobel peace price 1973! Yet again an American govern official does not get jailed! And ofcourse Nixon and Ford should have been jailed! Biden, Netanyahu and their administrations! The message: Muslims need to unite. The USA-led West have devided us. Look what they are doing to the Ummah. Taking us out one by one and often we help them in some way or form.. ❤Palestine🇵🇸
many of these conflicts he instegated would have happened regardless at some point, so he culdnt be convicted beyond reasonable doubt thts how it works in the west [thnk god] we have moved on frm monkey medievil judicial system
brother, this was amazing- this might be one of the best TH-cam videos I have ever watched. I specially admire how you make all of this political history simple and easy to understand for us regular folk; You have gained a subscriber today because you made all this extensive history look like a talk you have with one of your friends over a coffee. if there's one thing I like about your content is how god you are at simplifying difficult politics into a digestible conversation. Well done bro.
I recommended any and everyone to join the exclusive membership and benefit from the courses Ustadh is great at articulating and in presentation like you are watching a film , unbiased and raw information my only complaint Ustadh is I wish I could learn in aqueedah I appreciate your work BAArakallahu Feek I am a revert from US and learned a lot
The petrodollar agreement was one of King Faisal's most strategic decisions, made during the Cold War when nations were forced to align with either the USSR or the United States. Faisal chose the U.S., and had he opted for the USSR, it's possible the Soviet Union might still be a superpower today. However, the USSR, with its atheistic ideology, was a difficult choice for a leader with Faisal's values.
I watched a documentary where they were saying Saudis brought down the Soviet by flooding the market with cheap oil and putting the Soviet out of business since the backbone of the Soviet economy was oil. I'm sure American Jews were micromanaging the Saudis and telling them what to do and how to do it but it was the Saudi oil that brought the Soviets to their knees.
The Petro Dollar. In order to buy oil, nations must produce and sell cheap goods in the United states in order to get dollars in order to buy oil with dollars. This has undermined the value of the dollar. So many dollars have been printed and borrowed into existence to provide the world with oil money that it has destroyed the value of the dollar. Secondly, it has undermined quality. Other nations must sell their products at lower prices to gain a sales advantage in order to obtain dollars so that they can buy oil. This has hurt development around the world. It has forced every country to send products to the US to sell in order to obtain dollars so they can buy oil. It has destroyed manufacturing in the United states when in fact similar products being manufactured by other countries are for sale here which has put domestic manufacturers at a disadvantage and driven them out of business by competitors whose labor cost is much lower and whose prices are significantly lower. The citizens of the United states have borrowed literally trillions of dollars which end up outside the US so that other countries can buy oil and pay for it in dollars. American citizens are paying taxes and owing money they have no access to so that the rest of the world can buy oil. The petro dollar has destroyed the dollar through inflation, put American manufacturing at tremendous disadvantage, forced countries to flood the american market with cheap imports in hopes of obtaining dollars just so they can buy oil. It is an extremely subversive mechanism to undermine US manufacturing and destroy the value of the dollar while being sold as the idea which keeps the dollar strong. LLXIIX77
The petro-dollar deal was imposed at gunpoint. The US wanted the Saudis to raise the price of oil as far as possible. 80% of all the revenue had to be used to purchase US treasuries. This was a massive transfer of wealth to the US from the rest of the world. The Arabs cannot withdraw/sell their US treasury bonds. Professor Richard Werner.
The oil embargo of 73 was a collective effort and an action that the Saudis agreed to reluctantly. What made it worse for the west is the oil companies manipulative actions of slowing shipments and creating more oil shortages. They gained. The assissination of Faisal was a family matter in revenge for the killing of the nephew's father in the early 60s. Faisal was not what people think of him. He was not the religious, righteous man. He was focused on the preservation of the family and the kingdom he inherited. I believe the Saudi regime takes the lion's share of the blame for what the middle east is now.
@qualityman1965 True, King Faisal was killed out of revenge by his nephew, Faisal bin Musa'id because King Faisal had ordered the killing of his(King's) half brother Prince Musa'id bin Abdulaziz, also for allowing the the killing of Faisal bin Musa'id's older brother Khalid bin Musa'id, in addition to having many other family disagreements.
The 70s in the US, inflation was burning through and through. 1971 saw the stop-gap measure to cease gold-convertability for the dollar by foreign central banks. When Saudi signed the Petrodollar Deal, it extended lifeline to US and their dollar. Out of a sudden, the world needs more dollar to buy oil - a surge of artificial demand. With that, during 70s and early half of 80s, US could export some of its inflation abroad and foreign oil trade settlement needs the dollars.
Allahu'akbar. For all the history you've spoke of, there is just one single underlying factor every Muslim should recognize and understand. In the end, such a great country fell simply because it involved itself with "INTEREST". One of the major things Almighty Allah tells us to avoid in the Qur'an.
What? Saudi is the safest country if not one of them. Where are the rapes murders drugs criminals? That place is safe because they obey the ruler, destruction comes to a ppl when they go against their leader
Thank u my brother for your teaching on what went on in the 1970 I am American but I am not a follower of my Governments ugly ways 😢 I am a follower of yeshua/Isa and they are not no mater how many times they say they are i am sad for that 😢😢😢 the Zionest and all who follow their ways are fowlers of EVIL 😢😢😢😢 Massacring men women and CHILDREN are not God's ways 😢😢😢😢 I will still pray for them all but I will never stand with them I cry for all my Muslim brothers and sisters 😢😢😢😢 bless you for your teaching 🙏 my name is Liza
God bless you Liza. Most people are the victims of their government's abuse of power both at home and abroad, we do not condemn the American public for what those in charge (and their allies) have done abroad.
I think this is the brother I lost the contact for a while. I am glad I found him here . He is by profession an accountant , but quite knowlable Western world's tricks on muslims .
This is almost well spelt out in Sheikh imrans lectures delivered 20 yrs ago and he said exactly has you are laying out…Saudi Arabia agreeing to sell oil to only in US dollars, 1973 Petrodollar was born and it became or function has mountain of Gold. Great video 🫶🏽🫡
They called our beloved sheikh crazy 😢 our beloved teacher who thought us the games of dajjal they deserve what is coming 😢 over 20 years he was talking and nobody listen to him even the poorest of civilian's are blind the Rich are blind 😢
They didn't 'fall' for it, Perkins mentioned it, 'they are corruptable', not individually but collectively (who isn't!) Political, economic and military/CIA pressure normally gets the job done for the USA. Iran, Venezuela, Cuba etc only a few have withstood the US and all suffered for decades as a result
Who is this intellectual speaker please? I'm just knowing him for the first tiem, and I can confess he is an asset in these discourses. He revelas historical facts that are in the shadows for us to learn palinly!
Man Americas foreign policy needs to become a subject the craftiest people on earth, I do admire it when I look it at objectively and hope the ummah gains such an ability for the sake of Allah
The victor writes the history books. At one point the world pope was carefully selected by the Muslim Khalifah. As little as a few hundred years ago the British army kneeled in front of the Muslim Indian ruler. Yet now Arabs don’t even DARE speak out against Israel. It’s isn’t craftiness, it’s military and economic prowess. But above all, it’s courage. America can say we will attack you. The Arabs will pee their pants before uttering such words…in their own bedrooms. Humiliation entered the Ummah once the Arabs betrayed
It is stil ongoing . Irak , Lybia , asudan Syria , Lebanon , Afghanistan , Nigeria , Venezuela all destroyed countries or in very serious economic problems .
Watch the documentary called Bitter Lake & Hypernormalisation (Adam Curtis) from what I would personally call the best documentarian of the 20/21st century. It goes into things much, much deeper. The petroleum deal with the house of Saud was drawn up on bitter lake in the Middle East just after WW2. It’s truly eye opening
“We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.” -James Paul Warburg, whose family co-founded the Federal Reserve - while speaking before the United States Senate, February 17, 1950
Excellent video. I think the only misunderstanding was how the US earns interest on Saudi’s money. The saudis earned the interest in their sovereign funds, which was the incentive to make the deal for the saudis. Very great deal by far for the Americans, but I think in a vacuum, the countries with the sovereign wealth funds have done quite well financially. Doesn’t mean they got their fair share in that trade.
People keep giving faisal credit for nothing. He was just as bad as fhe rest. It was the Pakistani Prime Minister Bhutto that kicked sense into his head and assured him of full support if the U.s did anything. The muslims were united alot more than today and he had excellent relations with them all. Faisal jad to be pressured, he was no saint by any means.
Thing is we are Muslims and we had a Book send by one and only GOD of us all ALLAH Rabul Allamin and we had promised to be obedient and follow, but unfortunately we forgot and left the book and it's message and now all we have suffering and pain. Problem is with our brains we think what will this book give us when this world is so advanced and that what lead us to all this mess. Truth is book holds not just success in this world but promise the success in afterlife when currency was not dollars or gold it all about our deeds and what we bring good or bad from this world and only superpower on the day of judgment is one and only GOD of us all ALLAH Rabul Allamin who is superpower today also but this is just a chance given to us to test our ability for nest life. Anyway of Muslims just focus on there beliefs and follow the respectable Book The Quran and do good deeds then no one can scare us or even touch us with harm if our Lord ALLAH Rabul Allamin will we will servive with good and if HE want to test us or distroy us no one can protect us accept HIM the almighty with all the powers and to HIM we belong and to HIM we return insha ALLAH
One thing you didn’t mention was how just 3 years prior, the US took the dollar off the Gold Standard. Initially it was described as a temporary move. As the US just needed a little time to stabilize the dollar, and the Standard would be restored. A couple years pass and the dollar still can’t be redeemed for gold. But then Bingo, this agreement occurs. And the dollar now in essence is backed by oil!
Review the projected timeline for when various countries will deplete their oil supplies. Then you'll understand the methods of utilizing someone 's else's resources before yours.
This was one interpretation of it the other one is the Saudis agree to trade in petrodollars but with one condition to get a protection from US to the Saudi regime
2:45 "The Americans tried to invade Saudi Arabia" then why does the headline say "America once considered using military force" ? Those are worlds apart.
Was this happening at the same time as the Club of Rome's 1972 report on Limits of Growth? Second, can renewables ever offset the limited supply of oil in the world? Do nuclear plants help ease the energy crisis or do these too require oil to run them?
If other countries can buy Saudi oil in non-US currency, then they don't need to stockpile the US dollar. That is a level of independence for the buyer country.
Very good and informative. I feel like that was a business deal a lot of people benefited from. I feel that China or Russia would have made the same deal or similar. Obviously Saudi officials wasn’t hearing any of that and liked what the Americans proposed the most. That deal is actually really good for everyone. As far as the American invasion I truly believe we have a plan to invade everyone or at least explore the option. That era was very different and a lot of today’s current global economics and current landscape was being forged then. Saudis best option on who to work with was definitely the US then and they have benefited very well. They have a very high gdp. Also America had a lot to do with early refinery achievements there and invested money into it. I’m no scholar in geo politics and usually look for the bad things but I see good in this. Would hate to see if Russia got it during Cold War era. They were on the way down and China wasn’t ready. Britain seems like they had part in discovering it there but for some reason didn’t follow through properly. Thank you for this excellent breakdown. Very good at relaying information.
Very onesided perspective, first the gambling of blowing oil fields happened during the 1973 war between Arabs and Israel.. the deal happened afterwards and the main reason was the agreement that Saudi can buy the shares of the american companies and have full owner ship on the oil and production, before that Saudi Arabia used to get a fixed amount per barrel and a small share of the profit. This decision is what made Saudi Arabia the very wealthy county we knows today.
He was to Ale Saud what Umar Ibn Abdul Aziz was to the Ummayads. Caring for his people, reforming the corruption of the monarchy, acknowledging Shias as part of the nation....all the same steps Umar took. And of course from what I've heard, the Ummayads plotted against Umar....and so did Ale Saud against Faisal. SubhanAllah.
Recycling petro-dollar fiat currency and mandating using it for oil transactions is indeed was devious and crafty from U.S. Secretary of State at that time Henry Kissinger✡ he played a key role in facilitating agreements that linked oil sales to the dollar, King Faisal scarified the integrity of his country for solidify U.S. military support for Saudi Arabia that was dealine mistake.
It's not that simple that they fooled King Faysal for petro-dollar. I once saw a documentary, on why saudis really had no choice except to to tie oil to dollar. I don't really remember the details, but you can research to understand it better.
Did you not hear what the Saudi Finance and Oil minister said in the interview or the anecdote of Faisal when they threatened to take away everything? America didn't have that sort of card to play in the 1970s. They had to compromise and remain diplomatic, the Saudis were not forced to do anything
Sorry, I disagree with the point where you mention that money has to be deposited back to US. Money can be deposited with Japanese or EU banks in thier respective currency. The bank accounts are called Nostros. However, all these currencies are part of NATO team
May Allah have mercy on king Faisal rahimahullah. I also wish he wouldn't allpw the satellite dish in Saudi. His generation May have survived in the desert, just as he told Kissinger but modern generation will never accept that
or is the dollar dependent of Aramco oil sales ... what proportion of USA dollars comes from USA production and what proportion from Aramco ... the same thing with spending the money using USA businesses, surely those businrsses become dependent on Saudi Arabian purchase? Is it a place where what I call the 49-51 operates and if the fund of petrodollars and what its spent on wanders towards the 51, the Arabs have the USA economy - then it was underwritten by the Chinese with respect, Irene
It was a marriage destined to fail. Linking Oil to US Dollar was a Policy Error.. but in 1972-73, the Saudis were on a weak wicket. Mosaddeq wanted Iranian Oil for Irans development and was removed in an American coup. Faisal acqueised, and was not thrown out like Mosaddeq. Mosaddeq was right on principle.. but US / UK wished to "invade" and take the oil FOR FREE. Essentially a Colonial Project. "Take their Gas (for free) and kick their Arse" was / is The Policy.

To piggy back off of that comment, ultimately this is usury, and a act against Allah (eliminating gold for monopoly papers) this along with other acts that are against our religion have put us in the state that we are in. May Allah have mercy on us.

Akhi you should be a guest on so many podcasts. Your content is that good.
Look at the thumbnail, king Faisal is portrayed with devil horns and Henry Kissinger, security-adviser of Nixon, sits relaxed with his back to 'devilish' king: no worries.
Kissinger, he could probably be listed in top 5: pure evil men of last two centuries. He was intelligent, sick and very sick!
He was known for his illegal type of warfare and deepdark quotes like; "The illegal we do immediately, the unconstitutional takes a little longer".
He was a Jew, but he said outrageous things about Soviet Jews. His illegal and unconstitutional actions had real-world consequences; more then six million victims in Indochina, Cambodia, Vietnam and who knows where else.
Amazingly this w*rcr*m*n*l, despite accusations by critics, got a Nobel peace price 1973! Yet again an American govern official does not get jailed! And ofcourse Nixon and Ford should have been jailed!
Biden, Netanyahu and their administrations!

The petrodollar agreement was one of King Faisal's most strategic decisions, made during the Cold War when nations were forced to align with either the USSR or the United States. Faisal chose the U.S., and had he opted for the USSR, it's possible the Soviet Union might still be a superpower today. However, the USSR, with its atheistic ideology, was a difficult choice for a leader with Faisal's values.
I watched a documentary where they were saying Saudis brought down the Soviet by flooding the market with cheap oil and putting the Soviet out of business since the backbone of the Soviet economy was oil. I'm sure American Jews were micromanaging the Saudis and telling them what to do and how to do it but it was the Saudi oil that brought the Soviets to their knees.

The Petro Dollar. In order to buy oil, nations must produce and sell cheap goods in the United states in order to get dollars in order to buy oil with dollars. This has undermined the value of the dollar. So many dollars have been printed and borrowed into existence to provide the world with oil money that it has destroyed the value of the dollar. Secondly, it has undermined quality. Other nations must sell their products at lower prices to gain a sales advantage in order to obtain dollars so that they can buy oil. This has hurt development around the world. It has forced every country to send products to the US to sell in order to obtain dollars so they can buy oil. It has destroyed manufacturing in the United states when in fact similar products being manufactured by other countries are for sale here which has put domestic manufacturers at a disadvantage and driven them out of business by competitors whose labor cost is much lower and whose prices are significantly lower. The citizens of the United states have borrowed literally trillions of dollars which end up outside the US so that other countries can buy oil and pay for it in dollars. American citizens are paying taxes and owing money they have no access to so that the rest of the world can buy oil. The petro dollar has destroyed the dollar through inflation, put American manufacturing at tremendous disadvantage, forced countries to flood the american market with cheap imports in hopes of obtaining dollars just so they can buy oil. It is an extremely subversive mechanism to undermine US manufacturing and destroy the value of the dollar while being sold as the idea which keeps the dollar strong. LLXIIX77

Thank you so much for this insightful video, its answered so many questions that didnt make sense why King Faisal did that.
Love your content please keep making more
Jazakhallahu khairan
Assalamu alekum, I think you should do hsitory about Gaddafi too, His assassination has something to do with his decisions on on this topic too.
The petro-dollar deal was imposed at gunpoint. The US wanted the Saudis to raise the price of oil as far as possible. 80% of all the revenue had to be used to purchase US treasuries. This was a massive transfer of wealth to the US from the rest of the world. The Arabs cannot withdraw/sell their US treasury bonds. Professor Richard Werner.
The oil embargo of 73 was a collective effort and an action that the Saudis agreed to reluctantly. What made it worse for the west is the oil companies manipulative actions of slowing shipments and creating more oil shortages. They gained.
The assissination of Faisal was a family matter in revenge for the killing of the nephew's father in the early 60s.
Faisal was not what people think of him. He was not the religious, righteous man. He was focused on the preservation of the family and the kingdom he inherited.
I believe the Saudi regime takes the lion's share of the blame for what the middle east is now.
@qualityman1965 True, King Faisal was killed out of revenge by his nephew, Faisal bin Musa'id because King Faisal had ordered the killing of his(King's) half brother Prince Musa'id bin Abdulaziz, also for allowing the the killing of Faisal bin Musa'id's older brother Khalid bin Musa'id, in addition to having many other family disagreements.
The 70s in the US, inflation was burning through and through. 1971 saw the stop-gap measure to cease gold-convertability for the dollar by foreign central banks. When Saudi signed the Petrodollar Deal, it extended lifeline to US and their dollar. Out of a sudden, the world needs more dollar to buy oil - a surge of artificial demand. With that, during 70s and early half of 80s, US could export some of its inflation abroad and foreign oil trade settlement needs the dollars.
Allahu'akbar. For all the history you've spoke of, there is just one single underlying factor every Muslim should recognize and understand. In the end, such a great country fell simply because it involved itself with "INTEREST". One of the major things Almighty Allah tells us to avoid in the Qur'an.
What? Saudi is the safest country if not one of them. Where are the rapes murders drugs criminals? That place is safe because they obey the ruler, destruction comes to a ppl when they go against their leader

I think this is the brother I lost the contact for a while. I am glad I found him here . He is by profession an accountant , but quite knowlable Western world's tricks on muslims .
This is almost well spelt out in Sheikh imrans lectures delivered 20 yrs ago and he said exactly has you are laying out…Saudi Arabia agreeing to sell oil to only in US dollars, 1973 Petrodollar was born and it became or function has mountain of Gold. Great video 🫶🏽🫡
They called our beloved sheikh crazy 😢 our beloved teacher who thought us the games of dajjal they deserve what is coming 😢 over 20 years he was talking and nobody listen to him even the poorest of civilian's are blind the Rich are blind 😢
That's how the dollar got value. A scrap piece of paper in exchange for oil.
And military aid and money spent to protect Saudi Arabia .
The fact it was his family as well as US involvement tells me everything I need to know.

Man Americas foreign policy needs to become a subject the craftiest people on earth, I do admire it when I look it at objectively and hope the ummah gains such an ability for the sake of Allah
The victor writes the history books. At one point the world pope was carefully selected by the Muslim Khalifah. As little as a few hundred years ago the British army kneeled in front of the Muslim Indian ruler. Yet now Arabs don’t even DARE speak out against Israel. It’s isn’t craftiness, it’s military and economic prowess. But above all, it’s courage. America can say we will attack you. The Arabs will pee their pants before uttering such words…in their own bedrooms.
Humiliation entered the Ummah once the Arabs betrayed

This will never be allowed to happen again. The world has learned the hard way about the malevolence of those who would harm the people.
It is stil ongoing . Irak , Lybia , asudan Syria , Lebanon , Afghanistan , Nigeria , Venezuela all destroyed countries or in very serious economic problems .
Watch the documentary called Bitter Lake & Hypernormalisation (Adam Curtis) from what I would personally call the best documentarian of the 20/21st century. It goes into things much, much deeper. The petroleum deal with the house of Saud was drawn up on bitter lake in the Middle East just after WW2. It’s truly eye opening
“We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.”

Great video. Could you potentially do a video about the Talpiot program and the technology transfer?
Excellent video.
I think the only misunderstanding was how the US earns interest on Saudi’s money. The saudis earned the interest in their sovereign funds, which was the incentive to make the deal for the saudis.
Very great deal by far for the Americans, but I think in a vacuum, the countries with the sovereign wealth funds have done quite well financially. Doesn’t mean they got their fair share in that trade.
Thank you for a very enlightening video. Is the new Saudi-China economic and even monetary relationship going to disrupt this Saudi-US relationship?
Wow! The fight to retain Capital (economy) and Power is so complex
Excellent work

People keep giving faisal credit for nothing. He was just as bad as fhe rest. It was the Pakistani Prime Minister Bhutto that kicked sense into his head and assured him of full support if the U.s did anything. The muslims were united alot more than today and he had excellent relations with them all. Faisal jad to be pressured, he was no saint by any means.

Thing is we are Muslims and we had a Book send by one and only GOD of us all ALLAH Rabul Allamin and we had promised to be obedient and follow, but unfortunately we forgot and left the book and it's message and now all we have suffering and pain. Problem is with our brains we think what will this book give us when this world is so advanced and that what lead us to all this mess. Truth is book holds not just success in this world but promise the success in afterlife when currency was not dollars or gold it all about our deeds and what we bring good or bad from this world and only superpower on the day of judgment is one and only GOD of us all ALLAH Rabul Allamin who is superpower today also but this is just a chance given to us to test our ability for nest life. Anyway of Muslims just focus on there beliefs and follow the respectable Book The Quran and do good deeds then no one can scare us or even touch us with harm if our Lord ALLAH Rabul Allamin will we will servive with good and if HE want to test us or distroy us no one can protect us accept HIM the almighty with all the powers and to HIM we belong and to HIM we return insha ALLAH
One thing you didn’t mention was how just 3 years prior, the US took the dollar off the Gold Standard. Initially it was described as a temporary move. As the US just needed a little time to stabilize the dollar, and the Standard would be restored. A couple years pass and the dollar still can’t be redeemed for gold. But then Bingo, this agreement occurs. And the dollar now in essence is backed by oil!
You blew my mind with the petrodollar.
because it is true

Review the projected timeline for when various countries will deplete their oil supplies. Then you'll understand the methods of utilizing someone 's else's resources before yours.
This was one interpretation of it the other one is the Saudis agree to trade in petrodollars but with one condition to get a protection from US to the Saudi regime
4:01 agreed, it was to create an aura that OMG person of the year, face of the arabs
2:45 "The Americans tried to invade Saudi Arabia" then why does the headline say "America once considered using military force" ? Those are worlds apart.
Was this happening at the same time as the Club of Rome's 1972 report on Limits of Growth? Second, can renewables ever offset the limited supply of oil in the world? Do nuclear plants help ease the energy crisis or do these too require oil to run them?

If other countries can buy Saudi oil in non-US currency, then they don't need to stockpile the US dollar. That is a level of independence for the buyer country.
You need to discuss Anglo-saxon and Ulster-scot history. That’s the only way to understand their behavior and tendencies.
Very good and informative. I feel like that was a business deal a lot of people benefited from. I feel that China or Russia would have made the same deal or similar. Obviously Saudi officials wasn’t hearing any of that and liked what the Americans proposed the most. That deal is actually really good for everyone. As far as the American invasion I truly believe we have a plan to invade everyone or at least explore the option. That era was very different and a lot of today’s current global economics and current landscape was being forged then. Saudis best option on who to work with was definitely the US then and they have benefited very well. They have a very high gdp. Also America had a lot to do with early refinery achievements there and invested money into it. I’m no scholar in geo politics and usually look for the bad things but I see good in this. Would hate to see if Russia got it during Cold War era. They were on the way down and China wasn’t ready. Britain seems like they had part in discovering it there but for some reason didn’t follow through properly. Thank you for this excellent breakdown. Very good at relaying information.
Very onesided perspective, first the gambling of blowing oil fields happened during the 1973 war between Arabs and Israel.. the deal happened afterwards and the main reason was the agreement that Saudi can buy the shares of the american companies and have full owner ship on the oil and production, before that Saudi Arabia used to get a fixed amount per barrel and a small share of the profit. This decision is what made Saudi Arabia the very wealthy county we knows today.
Are federal reserve notes dollars? What doe's the u.s. constitution say the dollars is?
It really angers me when i see people thinking that us saudis want a democracy, we dont. We love our monarchy.
He was to Ale Saud what Umar Ibn Abdul Aziz was to the Ummayads. Caring for his people, reforming the corruption of the monarchy, acknowledging Shias as part of the nation....all the same steps Umar took. And of course from what I've heard, the Ummayads plotted against Umar....and so did Ale Saud against Faisal. SubhanAllah.
18:52 BUT WHY would you deposit the dollar in the USA ? There are banks allover the world.

Recycling petro-dollar fiat currency and mandating using it for oil transactions is indeed was devious and crafty from U.S. Secretary of State at that time Henry Kissinger✡ he played a key role in facilitating agreements that linked oil sales to the dollar, King Faisal scarified the integrity of his country for solidify U.S. military support for Saudi Arabia that was dealine mistake.

The petro dollar essentially replaced gold backing the dollar. The u.s. dollar stopped being backed by gold in 1971 😂
From one extreme to another! What sinister leverage did they have against the Saudi establishment
It's not that simple that they fooled King Faysal for petro-dollar. I once saw a documentary, on why saudis really had no choice except to to tie oil to dollar. I don't really remember the details, but you can research to understand it better.
Did you not hear what the Saudi Finance and Oil minister said in the interview or the anecdote of Faisal when they threatened to take away everything?
America didn't have that sort of card to play in the 1970s. They had to compromise and remain diplomatic, the Saudis were not forced to do anything

However, all these currencies are part of NATO team
May Allah have mercy on king Faisal rahimahullah. I also wish he wouldn't allpw the satellite dish in Saudi.
His generation May have survived in the desert, just as he told Kissinger but modern generation will never accept that
True...
or is the dollar dependent of Aramco oil sales ... what proportion of USA dollars comes from USA production and what proportion from Aramco ... the same thing with spending the money using USA businesses, surely those businrsses become dependent on Saudi Arabian purchase?
Is it a place where what I call the 49-51 operates and if the fund of petrodollars and what its spent on wanders towards the 51, the Arabs have the USA economy - then it was underwritten by the Chinese
with respect, Irene
King Faisal was good but it was a big mistake.
May Allah forgive him & grant him jannah.
It was a marriage destined to fail. Linking Oil to US Dollar was a Policy Error.. but in 1972-73, the Saudis were on a weak wicket.
Mosaddeq wanted Iranian Oil for Irans development and was removed in an American coup.
Faisal acqueised, and was not thrown out like Mosaddeq. Mosaddeq was right on principle.. but US / UK wished to "invade" and take the oil FOR FREE.
Essentially a Colonial Project. "Take their Gas (for free) and kick their Arse" was / is The Policy.
