"Why the Left Turned On Israel and Why It Matters"
with Asaf Romirowsky For a biography, please click here.
Focusing on Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza, the global Left sees Israel as an outlaw state that should beboycotted, divested from, and sanctioned. Indeed, the “Occupation” justifies “resistance,” which is to say, violence. Why has this happened and what is its significance?

"Jamaat-e-Islami: A Threat to Americans" with Sam Westrop and Cliff Smith For a biography, please click here.
We tend to focus on the role in the West of Islamist groups from the Middle East such as the Muslim Brotherhood. But South Asian groups also play an important and growing role in Europe and North America. This discussion focuses ono the influence of South Asia’s most prominent Islamist movement in the United States.

"Is Islam Globally Waxing or Waning?"
with Robert Spencer For a biography, please click here.
Islamic topics are less in the news than in years past – there’s nothing like 9/11 or ISIS to dominate the headlines. Does this mean that Islam has diminished as a force in politics? What do current trends look like given the history of Islam and the contemporary situation?
