THE DEFINITIVE RAP: Islamic Radicalism, Terror and Antisemitism Interview with Catherine Perez-Shakdam

It takes a rare individual who becomes deeply and personally
familiar with something that is wrong, and then dedicates her life to righting that wrong. That person is our special guest today.

Catherine Perez-Shakdam is a French journalist, political analyst and commentator. She specializes in West Asian and Islamic affairs.
Catherine is a former consultant for UNSC on Yemen, and she is an expert on Islamic Terrorism, Radicalization, and Antisemitism from personal and professional perspectives that she shared with our audience.  

Catherine discussed what it would be for Iran’s next constitution to enshrine the rejection of antisemitism to become the first country to make such a stance, and why it is not possible. In addition, what she has learned about the way Iran wants to portray themselves to the world in her interviews with their political figures.

Catherine spoke in detail about being born to Jewish parents, and being a grandchild of a Holocaust survivor, and also a fighter of Nazis, then married a Muslim and converted to Islam, and also published books and many articles about Shia Islam. Later, she came to detest Islam.

Catherine explained about being accused of spying for Israel against Iran, and their claims that she infiltrated Iran.

She talked about Yemen, and why is there such a humanitarian crisis there.

The biggest issue and fear that we have, according to Catherine, is that there is a tremendous rise in radicalism in the Middle East, and how it is affecting the entire world. It must be resisted!
