month there have been people who have been killed in saudi arabia the state used military force against the population the man who set up the facebook site for a day is a reach was assassinated outside his house so it's not the case that these more lucky's conducted some reforms and you know the people are satisfied with the use transfer payments turning over some oil money to bribe people in the short term but certainly at the same time they used brutal techniques including in yemen where the united states has just pledged one point two billion dollars to the yemenis to help them put down for the uprisings in the country of yemen so i don't see you know i don't have. a saying wind approach to some countries having made reforms in the case of libya we have a broken state nor hope of any kind of real human rights evaluation and in the case of the gulf countries bahrain saudi arabia yemen there is in fact blindness towards the state violence used against the population who have genuine demands and history of genuine calling for transformation ok if i go back to you in dubai it's quite hyp

saudi arabia we can look at qatar these are major players and they are not for these arab spring values not by a long shot well you can look at the united arab emirates which arguably is the most western facing nation in the gulf to has this sort of first anniversary of the spring decided to make sure that citizens and expatriates know that it is not looking for the power of the arab spring movement to reach this country and it has started cutting back on. rights groups to democratic groups even its own citizens who had sort of freely operated under the system here which had been more permissive okmulgee what do you come out on this in los angeles here where is the arab spring going is it is it freezing up. well it i so it's important question to answer your question first i would like to put arab countries governments monarchs and regimes into three different categories on their one hand we have those arab governments who've faced citizen revolves of pricing citizens who are seeking rights of freedom dignity or equal opportunity and did not want to to introduce political reforms

intelligence. he is suing the british foreign secretary he claims helped put him there. and saudi arabia allows a woman to represent it for the first time. we speak to a saudi princess. hello. over the past year, 32 tibetans, mainly monks and nuns, have set themselves on fire in protest against chinese rule as a call for the return of the exiled dalai lama. the majority of them have died. this wave of self immolations has traumatized and divided the tens of thousands of tibetans who live in exile with the dalai lama in india. many of whom believe his current strategy with china has failed. we have this exclusive report. you may find some of the images disturbing. data and monastery in the himalayas in india. tibetans in exile try to keep alive a religion and a culture. the ritual has hardly changed since buddhism was introduced into tibet in the seventh century. in a monastery next door, they are using the tools of the 21st century to mark the latest expression of tibetan despair. there has been another self immolation, and they spring into action. they are told he threw his body into a truck,

company executives or sheikhs in saudi arabia. >> i tease people sometimes that--you know, people say, "well, who's the largest oil company in america?" and they'll always say, "well, exxon mobil or chevron or b.p." but i'll say, "no, morgan stanley." [ticking] >> this is shaybah, a desert wilderness where temperatures can reach 135 degrees. beneath these sand dunes lie 18 billion barrels of oil, more than four times the proven reserves of alaska. and it's costing billions and billions to tap into it. with all the talk about kicking our addiction to foreign oil, the kingdom of saudi arabia is doing everything it can to keep the oil age going. let me be blunt: is it your hope to prevent a switch away from oil? somebody said the country is the oil business. i mean, you absolutely need to do this for your own survival. >> and what's wrong with that? [ticking] >> when the u.s. oil companies came here in the '40s and '50s, the americans moved into the area with their families and developed it to suit their tastes and their way of life. they created a replica of american suburbia. today

the people's will. it's not up to qatar's will, it's not up to saudi arabia will it's not up to united states will, it's not up to sarkozy will. it's up to the syrian people will. >> rose: we conclude this evening with golf and the winner of the masters, bubba watson. >> when i got to the course, beau van pelt shot 64. so you heard a bunch of roars and sunday at the masters is always wild, always great. great theater so i eagled both hole on the back nine before. three putted the first hole but birdied the second hole after he double eagled so i was just focused on what i had to do. i didn't think about catching him right away, tried to play steady, play my game and make some birdies coming down the stretch and somehow i did. so i've gist changed and realized that golf is not that big a deal. it's gotten me some great things great press, some fame, some money, but it's let me do things that are important to me. doing junior tournaments, giving back to my community of pensacola. doing these great things. winning a golf tournament is great but doing these other things outside of g

so at our "christian world news" facebook page. >>> u.s. is strengthening ties to saudi arabia. secretary of state hilary clinton met with the defense minister in washington. she highlighted the importance between the strong relationship. saudi arabia is the worst persecutor and called for the description of all churches on the arabian peninsula. joining us is cliff may, the president of the foundation for the defense of democracies. cliff, you point out, if a christian leader called for the description of mosques, there would have been a global out cry. why was there no response? >> i am totally mystified, not quite surprised the main stream media will not want to pick up on that. for diplomats, they are maintaining good relationships with the saudis, the media have a responsibility, somebody who comes from 20 years in the media to report that even if it is inconvenient to other people. >> saudi arabia will not allow christian churches. isn't it spreading the islam throughout the world. >> wahabi islam is an ultra orthodox version of islam. the saudi kingdom has spent more money spreadin

where is saudi arabia on nuclear energy and has the cabinet approved nuclear. does kcare have a plan? >> yes. yes. no. kcare stood up about a year ago. the king abdullah center for atomic renewable energy given the charter of coming up with a plan for a long-term energy plan for saudi arabia. kcare only has about 15 employees in it. so they contract it out to a whole host of other people to look at this. they're proceeding, and i think wisely, to canvass the globe for the best technologies for wind, solar and nuclear. so in the case of nuclear, they have signed m.o.u.s with us, the brits, the french and the south koreans and the chinese and the russians and the whole idea here is to understand all of the technologies that are available and to identify the technologies that would be most appropriate for saudi arabia. so no they don't have a plan yet. they're headed in that direction, and i think you'll probably see a balanced plan that will focus first on solar. saudi arabia wants to become an energy country, not a petroleum country and it's given a technical challenge with coming up

among some states and our senior saudi arabia and qatar they want to syrian government stored their interest is not reform in syria their interest is not treating the syrian people they're interested not human rights the syrian people are there their own people don't have those rights so what is a game in syria what do they want they want yes a government and that is for largely sectarian reasons they're trying to set up a which michelson a muslim wall across the middle east to block iran and to block the rise she is across the region that is their motives and if you actually follow what they have been doing in saying over the last year they had in fact been spoilers in every single level agitated against syria the arab league level the arab league when the arab league monitors syria and when the sponsors came up with a report actually same support in some ways what was soon saying that if you like i'm terribly sorry but i think i just need to try to get a straight term so you're suggesting that the is involved here ultimately western powers they want to bring up a razor war and cre

immediately? is it saudi arabia? is it egypt? is it -- name your country in the region. who is most likely to follow suit if p iran moves forward. >> i think collin and i basically agree on this, that in the short term it's hard to imagine any country instantly snapping its fingers and having nuclear weapons. i think the demand is going to be there immediately. in fact, i think you see the demand is already there. turkish officials, saudi officials, are already talking publicly about the possibility of getting nuclear weapons in response to iran. so i think the demand is already there. the thing that will be the limiting factor are their capabilities. so none of the countries that are often put forward have nuclear infrastructure already. they don't have advanced industrial capabilities. so it would take time for them to build up a nuclear infrastructure. the one exception might be saudi arabia. there's some reason to believe saudi arabia and pakistan have worked out a nuclear deal. it's possible pakistan could transfer nuclear weapons to saudi arabia, i don't think likely, but poss

be armed we heard the saudi saudi arabia saying after a meeting with the u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton that it was a duty to supply these arms now while some of the gulf countries such as saudi arabia and qatar have been pushing for that for quite a long time to arm the opposition we know that there are a lot of concerns in the international community about that happening is that but that would fuel sectarian violence that unlikely that you're going to see that today come out of the conference sir what's moscow's three going to gathering there . well this is the second friends of syria conference i was in in attendance and the first and again it has been attended today there are concerns really about the fact that the friends of syria is seen as being quite one sided and questions a vote whether or not they're really going to be pushing for dialogue and of course talks of arming the opposition is certainly not going to help that approach from the syrian government and the international community right now has signed on to case peace so there is a sense that possibly thi

portion the focus is the economies of saudi arabia, qatar and kuwait. it's just under an hour. >> i would like to reconvene our forum at this time. as you know, we are still on our tight schedule with one hour remaining on our second panel. the same procedures would pertain to questions from the floor so please begin sending them up as the panelists give their opening remarks. >> moderating our second panel is the honorable allen larsen whose biography you have in the event booklet. i'm sure all of you in the room and certainly we at the national u.s.-arab chamber remember his days in economics and his many years in the aba bureau where he was a champion for u.s. trade and international fair treatment for u.s. companies. so it's a particular pleasure to call on ambassador larson to moderate this panel. >> thank you very much, good afternoon everyone. we're looking forward very much to this panel. we're going to be considering a set of challenges that perhaps paradoxically are just as difficult and daunting in many ways as those of the economies in transition which we just heard discussed

seventy three the united states made an agreement with saudi arabia to trade to do all trade in u.s. dollars and is greatly benefited the united states but recently we've seen for take a lease on these emerging countries that you talked about they stood up and say why should the u.s. dollar continue to have preeminence for example china but i mean that this project into china will have the largest economy in the world i'm here to one sixty or so china sitting there and they're asking well russia and our currency how the moral place on the global stage and so we started this city a lot of these agreements come into place for example china russia have been trading with each other in their own currencies for over a year and then just a few months ago we saw china and japan the second and third largest economies on the globe reach an agreement where they would start promoting the use of their own currencies and trade with one another so we're starting to see this huge move away from the u.s. dollar. and now also want to talk about they care al the dollars widely known as the wild reserv

of you have mentioned, saudi arabia, but also nigeria, bahrain, have all announced military programs. pakistan is building two more heavy water processing plants, a second chemical processing plant. the nine countries within the context of the u.s.-soviet competition now are within the context of the middle east and the sunni/shi'a ferocity. my question is doesn't that change the likelihood of more countries getting nukes? >> it could. we have to be very careful. one of the countries you mentioned was the uae. we should hope every country develops their nuclear program the way the uae has. they've given up the right to domestic enrichment. there's no responsibility for proliferation as long as it sticks to that agreement. a lot of countries have nuclear programs. it's allowed under the npt. in, change for not building weapons, you're allowed a nuclear program. as long as the treaty is the way it, is you're going to have actives engaged in nuclear hedging we've seen countries doing the hokie pokey of moving forward and not move back but not always go the same way. and we're n

close ally of saudi arabia and saudi arabia hence is one of the allies of the u.s. so when we speak about the blackout being put on the train i think first and foremost that this is a saudi arabian wish because the saudi arabians also fear that there might be a domino effect which could happen in the pollution god beginning from bahrain and then spreading straight into saudi arabia particularly if you were to take into consideration that on the border between israel and saudi arabia the east of here is of saudi arabia will also have many who was also speaking are speaking out against the as all the regime there is even study. the silent western stance and a solid us i think that does not be separated from the saudi arabian wish to keep things as they are to keep on that situation because let me. just briefly want to go about thirty seconds left in this part bahrain cited bahrain's leaders claim they want significant reforms why are there not for the people there still clearly angry just thirty seconds if you will. yes clearly angry i think because the reforms you know are moderate f

, turkey, and saudi arabia, but also algeria, bahrain, and you nated arab emirate s, all signatories to the npt, have also announced nuclear programs. pakistan is now building two more heavy-water plutonium processing plants, a second chemical processing plant. so within the context -- you know, the nine countries are within the context of u.s./soviet competition. now we're within the context in the middle east in the sunni/shia froserocity. doesn't that change the likelihood of more countries getting nukes? >> you know, it could, although i think we have to be very careful. one country you mentioned was the uae and we should hope every country in the world develops its nuclear program the way the way they did because they've given up the right to domestic enrichment so there's no possibility for proliferation as long as it sticks to that agreement. look, a lot of countries have nuclear programs. it's allowed under the npt. that was the bargain, in exchange for not building nuclear weapons, you're allowed a civilian nuclear program. the npt has built into it the risk of nuclear hedgi

everything to the saudis, the kingdom of saudi arabia. so i saw rocks and sand- i didn't see any streets paved with gold; there was no golden fountains in the hotels or anything. now there are, but- >> yeah, i'll say. fire away, janet. >> is that part of what helped change your mind and increase your understanding was the fact that you saw rocks and sand instead of the- >> no. my father was disappointed. i expected- by that time, i was old enough and really informed of what the world looked like enough to not to be disappointed. my father was disappointed. before he went to saudi arabia- and he made umrah, the lesser pilgrimage. he made umrah, where you go by yourself, not with all the muslims- the annual pilgrimage. and he made the lesser pilgrimage to mecca, he went to pakistan, he went to egypt. and most disappointing for him was what he saw in saudi arabia. he expected a beautiful place, you know, the best place on earth, and when he got there, it was just the opposite. as far as physical conditions, it might have been almost the worst place on earth, you know. and he came back and h

western powers and on saudi arabia and on turkey it's on those countries that are backing your positions and tell them to support the peace a peace plan to stop this talk about arming them first not just talk about. us and then if they do this we could get peace in syria because we would he have a democratic framework to consult a strong interest in and now the government also says it reserves the right to our politics from armed groups are we likely or c.b. end violence by tomorrow well again it all depends what the opposition does because there's two sides to this conflict obviously the west is betraying this country as if it's only the that the assad regime which is degraded violence of course that's not true and just imagine if this was happening in america kerry imagine if say the syrian government was backing opposition to president obama and the american government talking about arming them financing them and you know what would be the american government's response and so you know what's been going on in syria is an attempt by outside powers to bring about regime change

implications? >> most likely not. when you have a conventional oil from saudi arabia, you have low-cost per barrel. it is easy for saudi arabia to change production for global demand. when you are talking about oil sands or drilling through water and rocks off the coast of brazil, you are talking about a higher cost of production that translate into higher prices for the oil. at the same time, you have more people who want more oil. that is the recipe for higher prices. >> how high could they go? >> it is a fool's game to try to predict that. we are seeing a situation where triple digit prices in american dollars for a barrel of oil are becoming the norm. you are hearing from places like saudi arabia that is the price they're shooting for. i have a hard time seeing prices go back down into the $50 zone where it was for a long time. >> the only real long-term strategy is to carry on with the kind of energy efficiencies we have seen over the last few years and push them further. >> in the united states, a lot of attention is paid to what the president can or cannot do to lower the price o

especially saudi arabia ok if you want to jump in there you said you disagree go ahead. i don't i don't really see a big difference between the muslim brotherhood and the softest parties particular i think warren is absolutely right i mean the brotherhood was burned initially nine hundred forty eight after an assassination attempt. to know there were many brothers who fled egypt and went to saudi arabia and went to kuwait they went to carter and so on so this is not a new thing at all in. muslim brotherhood of forty fifty years ago it's the same as the muslim brotherhood today in egypt there's no change they haven't evolved and i think we have found a way to head the founding principles are exactly the same i mean you know we have charter is actually saying that he supports our laws are and he wants ours are to be involved in the islamization of the world and ours are has a role in gaining control of islamization in egypt. and of the world and he said this just very recently so if you know there. are certain 1940's we still beginning of the arab spring we've seen islamic parties w
