Religious Freedom: From Germany's Burqa Ban to Trump's Commission on Radical Islam 12/10/16

This week, Dr. Jasser dives into how Germany's talk of a "Burqa ban" raises some of the central issues of the great debate between Islamist sharia based tribal societies and western liberal democracies. Zuhdi answers the question of why individual rights are still preeminent through a ban of the niqab/face veil/burka in public. Additionally this week as the Trump cabinet begins to take shape Zuhdi dreams about what an ideal strategy domestically and abroad against radical Islam would look like. How can a Commission against radical Islam that Trump promised to form become the common center point and lens for approaching Homeland Security and foreign policy. Dr Jasser challenges the Trump Administration to not only establish the commission but resurrect the US Information Agency program to this time confront the global ideology of theocratic Islam or Islamism with liberty.
