Valuetainment - ＂Hitler Of The Middle East＂ - MBS SLAMS Iran’s Khamenei Over Threat To Israel & The West

00:00:00.560 It's bad to the point where MBS, you think about what MBS is trying to do, right?

00:00:04.180 Saudi Arabia.

00:00:05.300 They're getting tourism.

00:00:06.760 They're getting guys like Ronaldo.

00:00:08.220 They're getting fights over there.

00:00:09.780 They're getting the live golf.

00:00:11.360 Did you hear what he had to say on 60 Minutes?

00:00:12.980 Did you see what he said on 60 Minutes?

00:00:14.200 Vinny, have you seen this?

00:00:14.960 I saw a section of it.

00:00:16.480 Watch this here.

00:00:17.100 Go ahead, Ron.

00:00:17.460 Yes, yes, yes, yes.

00:00:18.680 Not a rival to Saudi Arabia.

00:00:20.760 Its army is not among the top five armies in the Muslim world.

00:00:24.240 The Saudi economy is larger than the Iranian economy.

00:00:27.640 Iran is far from being equal to Saudi Arabia. 0.86

00:00:30.620 But I've seen that you called the Ayatollah Khamenei the new Hitler of the Middle East.

00:00:36.700 Absolutely.

00:00:37.920 Why?

00:00:40.160 Because he wants to expand.

00:00:41.940 He wants to create his own project in the Middle East, very much like Hitler, who wanted to expand at the time. 0.74

00:00:47.800 Many countries around the world and in Europe did not realize how dangerous Hitler was until what happened happened. 0.57

00:00:53.940 I don't want to see the same events happening in the Middle East.

00:00:56.920 Does Saudi Arabia need nuclear weapons to counter Iran?

00:01:01.720 Saudi Arabia does not want to acquire any nuclear bomb.

00:01:04.940 But without a doubt, if Iran developed a nuclear bomb, we will follow suit as soon as possible. 0.99

00:01:10.900 Okay, so here's a question.

00:01:12.100 That is MBS from Saudi.

00:01:14.200 Here's a question.

00:01:14.640 Sounds pretty reasonable.

00:01:16.500 But here's a question I want you to think about.

00:01:18.340 Okay.

00:01:19.640 What do you think his motive is?

00:01:21.980 What do you think MBS's vision is?

00:01:23.800 To make Saudi Arabia one of the biggest, most powerful tourism...

00:01:29.660 Is that the impression you're getting?

00:01:30.780 Yeah, he loves his country and he wants...

00:01:32.520 Have you been to Saudi Arabia?

00:01:33.860 I have.

00:01:34.340 Have you been?

00:01:34.860 Yes.

00:01:35.200 Did you feel safe?

00:01:38.540 Kind of, sort of.

00:01:39.380 Where was it?

00:01:39.820 When was it?

00:01:40.320 I was in a couple of places.

00:01:42.600 What year?

00:01:43.120 What's the last time you were there?

00:01:45.080 I came here seven years ago, six years ago?

00:01:48.240 So seven, six years ago, you were in Saudi Arabia.

00:01:49.920 Okay.

00:01:50.340 Have you been to Iran?

00:01:51.860 No.

00:01:52.260 Why not?

00:01:53.580 Never crossed my mind.

00:01:55.300 If you got a comedy skit right now to go to Iran to do a show, would you go?

00:01:58.740 Right now?

00:01:59.660 Absolutely.

00:01:59.800 Two years ago?

00:02:00.880 Probably not.

00:02:01.700 Probably not.

00:02:02.060 Probably not?

00:02:02.580 Why not?

00:02:03.100 How about definitely not?

00:02:04.220 Just say I'm an American.

00:02:05.500 I'm a veteran.

00:02:07.000 But do you feel safer going to Saudi versus going to Iran?

00:02:09.380 Oh, for sure.

00:02:09.900 Okay.

00:02:10.460 So when you think about Iran, what do you think Khamenei's vision is for Iran?

00:02:15.200 What do you think their number one is?

00:02:17.520 So MBS is what?

00:02:18.920 To be like, you know, nice place to go, you know, events, sport, all this kind of stuff.

00:02:24.660 What do you think Iran's vision is?

00:02:26.420 What do you think Khamenei's vision is?

00:02:30.020 I honestly don't, like, I don't know.

00:02:31.760 Have a great country, you know, economy.

00:02:35.520 You think it's economy?

00:02:36.840 Well, I mean, what else would I leave?

00:02:38.220 Do you really believe that?

00:02:39.300 Well, what do you want?

00:02:39.880 Because let me ask you this question.

00:02:42.360 Say, for instance, if somebody wants a good economy, say you're saying you want them to have a good economy.

00:02:47.660 Yeah.

00:02:47.960 All right.

00:02:48.280 If that's your number one, what would you do for your country to have a great economy?

00:02:52.500 What would you need to do to have a great economy?

00:02:54.860 Tom, if let's just say Khamenei or the leaders of Iran want to have a great economy for their country,

00:03:00.300 what are some five things I can do to make my country better for my people?

00:03:03.920 Oh, my gosh.

00:03:05.020 You would open up trade discussions.

00:03:07.420 You'd try to get some trade treaties put on.

00:03:09.300 You would try to get invited as a guest to things like G7 and get diplomats together.

00:03:15.120 You would try to play nice with the world stage to get people to recognize you and to step it back.

00:03:21.120 Look what Saudi's doing with sports, with F1, with soccer, with live golf.

00:03:25.940 They're trying to bring people in there.

00:03:27.860 They're trying to engage the rest of the West and be an active, good participant in all that and get trade with, you know,

00:03:35.940 they've got a lot of Petro, of course, and get trade and things set up with the rest.

00:03:41.080 Iran doesn't look like it's doing any of that.

00:03:43.500 So, Tom, your impression of Iran is that's not what they're trying to do.

00:03:46.540 That's not what they're trying to do.

00:03:47.480 What do you think Iran's number one is?

00:03:49.380 The current leaders of Iran, what do you think their number one is?

00:03:51.520 I believe they're on a Islam-driven mission to destroy what they feel is their enemies. 1.00

00:04:01.320 Do you believe that, Vinny, or no?

00:04:02.740 Yeah.

00:04:03.420 You do believe that?

00:04:04.000 Yeah.

00:04:04.500 What do you think they're – and when it comes down to having relations with other countries to open up the economy

00:04:10.180 and allow other companies to go there, what do you think that ranks for Iran?

00:04:14.860 Right now?

00:04:16.360 Period.

00:04:16.860 Ever.

00:04:17.320 They've never – like in the last 46 years.

00:04:19.480 How important do you think that is to them?

00:04:20.680 I mean, I don't know.

00:04:21.500 I don't follow their –

00:04:23.060 Like number 68?

00:04:24.260 But you don't have to –

00:04:25.640 You don't have to follow it to see motives, right?

00:04:28.780 You don't have to follow it to see motives, you know, to – because when we're commenting on things like this,

00:04:35.600 if last night I had a meeting with all my insurance executives, top players.

00:04:43.020 Meeting started at noon and it finished at midnight.

00:04:45.980 Midnight?

00:04:46.400 12.30?

00:04:46.800 Yeah, we finished at midnight, yeah.

00:04:47.460 Something like that, okay?

00:04:47.960 We're at the lounge until 12 o'clock last night.

00:04:50.680 It was a room of a bunch of people that some get along, some don't get along.

00:04:55.820 Some wanted to be there, some really didn't want to be there.

00:04:58.200 It was a tough meeting that we had.

00:04:59.980 Sure was.

00:05:00.840 But you know what was the equal, what brings everybody together?

00:05:05.780 It's one question.

00:05:06.620 What is it?

00:05:07.080 What's in it for me?

00:05:09.180 What's going to happen for me?

00:05:10.520 Pride?

00:05:10.940 Some of the people are like, Pride, hey, I built this company, I want to take it to the next level.

00:05:14.060 For some people it's what's in it for me.

00:05:15.360 And what does what's in it for me do?

00:05:17.740 It gets everybody to know, okay, you're going to make money?

00:05:19.800 You're going to make money?

00:05:20.520 You're going to make money?

00:05:21.160 Okay, cool.

00:05:21.720 All right, sounds good.

00:05:22.820 Let's roll.

00:05:23.380 I trust, right?

00:05:25.040 With MBS, if you know his main motive is what?

00:05:27.840 I want to open up the economy.

00:05:29.000 I want tourists to come here.

00:05:30.080 I want people to feel safe.

00:05:31.360 I want all that stuff to be taking place.

00:05:32.840 Rob, can you pull up the map of the Middle East?

00:05:34.460 I want people to feel safe.

00:05:36.540 He has to be thinking about what do I need to do to make this entire region safer so a guy like you that's coming in is not even worried about it, right?

00:05:45.400 Look at that.

00:05:46.100 Saudi, Qatar, and who's right next to him?

00:05:49.680 Iran.

00:05:51.240 You see where Iran is right across from the water?

00:05:53.660 Boom.

00:05:54.340 So they don't want that.

00:05:59.840 Iran doesn't want an open economy. 0.99

00:06:01.920 Saudi doesn't get up and MBS doesn't get up and say, death upon America.

00:06:07.360 Screw the infidels. 1.00

00:06:08.240 They should die. 1.00

00:06:08.780 We should kill them. 1.00

00:06:10.240 That's not how they negotiate. 1.00

00:06:12.780 So, again, I'm not sitting here saying, let's go to war.

00:06:17.300 What I'm saying to you is, the Middle East would probably be a better place if a different regime was running Iran.

00:06:25.700 And if that was the case, we would be more at peace.

00:06:28.320 It doesn't mean Israel's not going to change being, what's the word, ambitious.

00:06:34.240 It doesn't mean Israel's going to change being less ambitious and wanting to get their Mossad to lower all this. 0.62

00:06:40.800 AIPAC's going to slow down.

00:06:41.940 No, they're going to keep doing their agenda.

00:06:44.200 None of that's going to slow down.

00:06:45.820 But the common denominator here is everybody on the right was happy when Hassan Soleimani, oh, my God, that's my leader.

00:06:53.000 That's my president.

00:06:54.000 He's showing strength.

00:06:55.680 But now, no, no, no.

00:06:57.840 Why?

00:06:58.460 Because there's Israel derangement syndrome. 0.80

00:07:01.580 And guess what?

00:07:03.160 You either have TDS or you have ideas.

00:07:05.760 We have one of the two.

00:07:06.960 Here's my question.

00:07:07.880 So, how does this play out to help Iranian people?

00:07:10.980 So, they're going to go in there.

00:07:12.680 They're telling everybody to get out of Tehran, where my mom and dad are from, where your whole family is, where you're from.

00:07:18.900 I want to know what is the, what's the, so kill, they're already taking out the leadership, which is a great thing.

00:07:26.120 Then you're going to take out Khomei. 1.00

00:07:27.180 I'm just curious, what is the plan?

00:07:29.960 What's the end goal?

00:07:30.800 Your question is, what's the end goal?

00:07:32.160 I love plans.

00:07:34.400 By the way, I'm not sitting here advocating for Iran or their leadership at all.

00:07:39.320 I'm just curious.

00:07:40.300 Okay, Israel is doing it. 0.93

00:07:42.220 We're going to get put into it.

00:07:44.440 What is the end game?

00:07:45.400 Now you take out Khomeini. 0.99

00:07:46.500 You take out all the nuclear stuff.

00:07:47.480 Okay, then what?

00:07:48.860 Israel is going to put somebody in? 0.78

00:07:50.120 Or are they going to have elections?

00:07:51.480 I don't know what that looks like.

00:07:53.800 That's what I'm curious for.

00:07:55.580 And again, not pro-Iran or what's happening over there.

00:08:00.580 I am just anti-United States as a veteran going to war.

00:08:05.700 That's it.

00:08:06.440 I'm simple.

00:08:07.280 Let me respond to Vinny.

00:08:08.380 I totally understand where you're coming from.

00:08:10.560 More than you actually think.

00:08:12.220 Because I think as an American, we look at what we've done over the last couple decades,

00:08:16.800 getting involved in foreign wars, and there's a lot of Americans who are just like, I'm so over this.

00:08:23.860 Afghanistan, Iraq, what we're going on out there.

00:08:26.440 But just because you're over that, it's almost like we're playing scared now.

00:08:32.480 Now we have a trillion dollar military budget.

00:08:36.560 Why are we spending so much money?

00:08:38.420 To let our machinery and defense capabilities rust?

00:08:43.520 Like we're the old Soviet Russian military?

00:08:45.960 In my opinion, a lot of you guys are playing scared and don't recognize what's actually happening in front of your eyes.

00:08:52.660 Not hypothetical.

00:08:54.080 Not playing scared.

00:08:55.460 The Iranian regime is teetering.

00:08:57.720 And at any point might be eliminated.

00:09:00.680 By the way, the Ayatollah Khomeini is 86 years old, going on to meet his martyr pretty soon.

00:09:08.040 And Israel, this little country that could, has eliminated every terror threat around them.

00:09:13.760 And they're probably looking at Iran and being like, we've taken out their air missile defense capabilities.

00:09:18.720 We've just taken down their nuclear facilities, despite people thinking they don't have nuclear capabilities.

00:09:24.260 And in Israel, to the point where Iran is now calling Qatar, Saudi, countries around the Middle East, basically saying, please help me.

00:09:33.200 We need your help against Israel. 0.99

00:09:35.460 This is the same regime that's talking tough, chanting kill, death to Israel, death to America, death to England, death to the infidels. 0.99

00:09:42.520 So, in my opinion, I totally understand why you're frustrated. 0.90

00:09:47.020 But if I could go and recreate everything we've done over the last 20 years, I wouldn't be in Afghanistan. 1.00

00:09:51.780 I wouldn't be in Iraq. 0.99

00:09:53.000 I wouldn't be in Libya. 0.93

00:09:54.160 I wouldn't be in Syria. 0.99

00:09:55.300 I wouldn't do any of this.

00:09:56.420 I would stay laser focused on the massive problem in the Middle East. 1.00

00:10:00.540 And that is the Islamic Republic of Iran, period.

00:10:03.160 If Netanyahu had a blank check to do whatever he wanted to do in the Middle East, with nobody stopping him, what do you think he would do?

00:10:15.740 So, good question.

00:10:17.280 I firmly believe that every leader that we're talking about is their country first.

00:10:22.360 So, I believe that Trump is America first.

00:10:23.980 I know, I understand.

00:10:24.880 I'll answer your question.

00:10:26.600 My question is, it's not just his people first.

00:10:30.660 If he had the opportunity to do anything unstopped and unchecked, with no balances, do you think he would want to further the Israeli border?

00:10:40.360 Do you think he would want to dominate other countries?

00:10:42.180 What do you think, if we just let him do whatever the hell he wanted to do, what do you think he would do?

00:10:45.980 Okay, and I'll put this back to you because I want to know what you think he would do.

00:10:49.140 I believe that Bibi is Israel first. 1.00

00:10:51.080 I believe that Xi is China first. 0.78

00:10:52.780 I believe that Putin is Russia first.

00:10:54.600 I believe, in a weird way, that the Ayatollah is kind of Iran first, but more Islamic revolution first.

00:11:00.660 So, the argument that Israel wants to expand its borders and, what, govern a billion Muslim Arabs as if that's what they want to do, 0.88

00:11:10.520 is, to me, so far-fetched and nonsensical that it actually doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

00:11:16.180 So, let's go there for a second.

00:11:17.940 I'm not sure what you're speculating.

00:11:19.040 I'll let you answer this.

00:11:20.100 It was just a sincere question.

00:11:21.680 Okay, are we saying, because I've heard this argument, that the Israeli aggression and the Israeli expansionism is trying to take over the Middle East? 1.00

00:11:28.560 To me, that's so stupid. 0.99

00:11:30.920 Are you trying to tell me that Israel, the size of New Jersey, is trying to... 1.00

00:11:34.460 Can we pull that map up one more time?

00:11:36.380 Please.

00:11:36.960 Are we trying to say that Israel, which is trying to defend itself, is trying to govern all of that?

00:11:44.080 What, Vinny?

00:11:44.940 To me, they can barely govern the people of Gaza and Palestine, much less Turkey, Iraq, Syria, Iran, Saudi, Qatar. 0.79

00:11:51.940 He's asking you a basic question.

00:11:52.900 Yeah, but do you remember...

00:11:54.140 I think they just want to have their own borders and stay in peace and chill.

00:11:58.940 But to assume that a small country can't do damage, did we forget what Japan did to China? 0.90

00:12:06.000 And went in there and...

00:12:06.940 Did they take over China? 0.90

00:12:07.620 Well, brother, we're throwing up babies and landing them on the knees of their rifles.

00:12:12.280 I mean, to think that just because of the country...

00:12:13.820 So, tell me your point.

00:12:14.500 I just don't...

00:12:15.740 Every time...

00:12:17.220 And again, I am not, just so you know, I am not an anti-Israel person.

00:12:22.380 I am not any of that, because I have a lot of friends.

00:12:27.080 And I see both sides.

00:12:27.960 I listen to Vinny.

00:12:29.000 Vinny has his side.

00:12:30.080 You have your side. 1.00

00:12:31.500 But when I listen to Netanyahu, it just seems like he's always wanting to instigate some shit. 0.99

00:12:36.040 It just seems that way to me. 0.99

00:12:37.140 I could be wrong, but it seems that way to me.

00:12:40.160 It's always like, for example, when they ask them, oh, you have credible threats that Trump...

00:12:44.840 They wanted to kill Trump.

00:12:46.060 Well, yeah, we have this proxy. 0.95

00:12:48.040 Like, bro, that's...

00:12:48.920 You're making a big...

00:12:50.300 That's not something small.

00:12:51.880 For those of you guys that love business and you're super competitive, and I'm talking like a psycho competitor.

00:12:57.360 You're somebody that wants to win at the highest level.
