The New Gulf Reality: Iran, America & What Comes Next | Prof. Bernard Haykel In our first-ever virtual episode, Professor Bernard Haykel, Director of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University, breaks down the powerful forces reshaping the Middle East today. From Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 transformation to the decline of ideological movements across the region, Prof. Haykel offers sharp insight into where things are headed—and why it matters. We dive into rising tensions involving Iran and the United States, the future of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) security, and the ongoing crisis in Palestine. Finally, we explore what could define the region’s future, from greater regional unity to why human capital may be the Gulf’s most important long-term advantage. 0:00 What’s Really Happening in the Middle East? 1:27 The Biggest Shifts Reshaping the Middle East Right Now 3:20 The Deep Divides Defining the Region 5:10 What Sparked the Rising Tensions with Iran? 7:18 How the Gulf Cooperation Council Is Being Impacted 8:46 Saudi Arabia’s Balancing Act: Stability vs Transformation 11:28 Inside Saudi Arabia’s Massive Economic & Social Overhaul 12:51 The Surprising Rise of Women and Social Change 14:02 A New Book That Explains Saudi Arabia’s Transformation 17:42 Inside the Vision of Mohammed bin Salman 21:09 Will a Palestinian State Ever Become Reality? 23:10 Why the Gulf Must Unite on Defense Now 26:13 Are United States Bases Still Protecting the Gulf? 27:40 What Gives Real Hope for the Middle East’s Future? 29:03 Final Thoughts + Book Release Update The Mo Show Youtube https://bit.ly/3nDwsZv Apple Podcast https://apple.co/3J9ScX4 Spotify https://spoti.fi/33dzsC2 Anghami https://bit.ly/3mRo1uy Instagram https://bit.ly/2KAwq5v X https://bit.ly/3KanEnJ TikTok https://bit.ly/43L92po LinkedIn https://bit.ly/3NkxZoe Snapchat https://bit.ly/3NM3LKQ Website https://bit.ly/3H2DhMM Email info@themopodcast.com
