Arab activist: My journey from hating Jews to loving Israel

“The Quad,” Ep. 29

In this week’s episode, “The Quad” is joined by guest host Chama Mechtaly, a Jewish-Muslim activist, and Luai Ahmed, a Yemen-born Swedish journalist, to discuss the dangers posed by radical Islam and the antisemitism emanating from sections of the Muslim world.

They also discuss how Europe and America are ignoring the problem for fear of being called racist. As Hamas’s Oct. 7 massacre in southern Israel is being celebrated openly in the streets of New York, London, Paris and Malmö, Switzerland, is the West failing to combat the poison of Muslim extremism?

And, of course, learn the Scumbags and Heroes of the Week!
