Ep. 11: Nervana Mahmoud: Egypt and the Middle East in the midst of evolution

The Egyptian political commentator says nations have started fighting “the enemy from within.”

In this episode, Ellie Cohanim talks with Egyptian political commentator Nervana Mahmoud about the evolution towards tolerance and co-existence in her home country of Egypt, as well as other countries in the region.

They discuss also anti-Semitism and perceptions of Zionism in the region, and what countries in the West need to do to support those fighting for a more tolerant and just Middle East.
