Growing up a religious Muslim in Saudi Arabia, Loay Ahmed Alshareef believed that Jews descended from pigs and apes and Israelis lived on stolen land. Later in his twenties, he went to study abroad in France where his homestay family turned out to be… Jewish.
Despite initially contacting his school to be moved, he stayed put. Eventually his views evolved and he became a “proud Muslim Zionist.”
Loay joins FDD’s Hussain Abdul-Hussain and host Cliff May to discuss the ancient roots of antisemitism, its modern application on college campuses, how it fuels the war on Israel being waged by the Islamic Republic of Iran and its proxies, why Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s efforts to reform Saudi Arabia could make the Kingdom ripe for peace with Israel and more.
