43:11Now PlayingDr. Zuhdi Jasser joins the Soothing Semantics Podcast for a powerful conversation on Islam, reform, Israel, antisemitism, Americanism, and the fight against political Islam.
Dr. Jasser is an American physician, former U.S. Navy officer, founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, and a leading Muslim reformer who argues for the separation of mosque and state. In this episode, we discuss why he believes political Islam is incompatible with liberty, why he supports Israel, how antisemitism spreads through conspiracy theories, and why reform inside the Muslim world is one of the most important challenges of the 21st century.
We also get into America’s unique role, the difference between assimilation and shared civic values, Jewish-Muslim dialogue, the future of Iran, Arab culture, Syrian Jews, and why free speech and religious choice are essential for any truly modern society.
