"I've Been Called a Traitor to Islam by Islamists & the Left". Islamist Threat to Western Democracy

from New Culture Forum · host New Culture Forum

Following the horrendous attack on Salman Rushdie by a Muslim fundamentalist, Peter Whittle is joined by Wasiq Wasiq, Associate Fellow at the Henry Jackson Society's Centre on Radicalisation & Terrorism, for a wide-ranging discussion about Islam, Islamism and the fundamentalist agenda in Britain. Wasiq Wasiq is a founding trustee for the charity Muslims Against Antisemitism (MAAS). Moreover, with a particular expertise in Islamism, he has been raising the issue of how non-violent Islamism is threatening western democracies. Most recently, Wasiq was one of two lay advisors on the Singh Investigation into alleged discrimination and ‘Islamophobia’ in the Conservative Party. The report concluded that allegations of institutional racism against the Party were not borne out by the evidence available to the Investigation. This ground breaking and historic report was fully accepted by the Conservative Party whom have now agreed to all recommendations. Wasiq currently writes extensively on matters of antisemitism, extremism and terrorism for a number of well-known media outlets such as Harry’s Place, Jewish News, Spiked and The Mallard. ----------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.
