King Faisal Speech

“If the hour comes…you will find me and my children and my brothers in the front lines with you.”
Faisal bin Abdulaziz Al Saud was the third son of King Abdulaziz, the founder of modern Saudi Arabia. He was born in Riyadh on 14 April 1906 and became king in November 1964. He oversaw a policy of industrialisation, modernisation and reform of Saudi Arabia.
King Faisal was known for his passionate advocacy for Islamic solidarity, particularly concerning the Palestinian cause. He worked towards mobilising Muslim nations in support of Palestine, emphasising the issue not just from an Arab perspective but as an Islamic one, especially after the arson attack on the Al-Aqsa Mosque in 1969. This effort led to the establishment of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, underscoring the Palestinian issue as a top priority for the organisation. His views on using oil as a weapon in support of the Palestinian cause, stating that "Palestine is more valuable to us than oil," highlight his commitment to the cause. This stance was made apparent during the oil embargo of 1973 - 1974.
In a speech to the United Nations in 1947, he stated about Zionism:
“It is a group which does not represent world Jewry. It is a group which is more political than religious, a group whose ways and methods are not different from those of the Nazis.”
In 1975, while holding a majlis event in which the ruler opens up their residence to citizens to petition him, he was shot at point-blank and killed by his nephew Faisal bin Musaid. The motives for the assassination remain unclear to this day.
In this undated speech, King Faisal addresses a crowd and states his readiness to fight for the liberation of Palestine if the people are ready to stand up with him. Behind him, you can see the current ruler of Saudi Arabia, King Salman, the 25th son of King Abdulaziz.
