“I’m Afraid Of Britain’s Islamists” Moderate Muslim Calls Out Extremism
<p>Watch the full uncut interview HERE: https://thebrinkpodcast.substack.com In this episode of The Brink, Andrew and Jake are joined by Loay Alshareef to discuss radical Islam, antisemitism, and why he believes the West has failed to understand the threat posed by the Muslim Brotherhood. Drawing on his own journey from radicalism to becoming an outspoken Muslim supporter of Israel, Luay explains why he believes Islam and Zionism are compatible, and why more Muslims must speak out against extremism. The conversation also explores the war with Iran, the future of the Abraham Accords, and why Luay remains optimistic about peace between Israel and the Arab world, while warning against the growing hostility towards Muslims within parts of the pro-Israel movement.
