Dont’ miss this week’s episode as Dr. Jasser looks at key elements that initial discussions on the public use of artificial intelligence (AI) should include. Zuhdi talks about why the field of bioethics interestingly has a lot to inform the new field of AI. Dr. Jasser also applauds a lawsuit filed against the Minneapolis City Council about their recent passage of an ordinance exemption giving mosques a pass on their noise ordinance 5 times a day 7 days a week. Dr. Jasser explains how that exemption only serves Islamists and not larger Muslim communities and certainly not religious freedom writ large in the U.S. Similarly, in New Jersey a schoolteacher is seeking vindication from Islamists, including an Olympic athlete, Ibtihaj Muhammad, who defamed her falsely claiming that she physically attacked a student wearing a hijab and was therefore a bigot?

Dr. Jasser joined David Foster on his program “Roundtable” on TRT World UK. Dr. Jasser debated Farid Hafez of the Bridge Initiative, Austria and Massoud Shadjareh of the Islamic Human Rights Commission in the UK.
Not only did we find this debate fascinating in the context of what’s happening in Austria and France but also that it happened on TRT World– Turskish state television, an Islamist government run press agency.
While there is a lot more to discuss, this start is a “must watch” debate that runs to the core of our mission at AIFD. Threading the needle of freedom, protecting Western values, defeating Islamism, while maintaining our personal faith of Islam and worship of God.
AIFD directly confronts the ideas of political Islam and openly counters the common belief that the Muslim faith is rooted to the concept of the Islamic State (Islamism – the belief that Islam should guide social and political as well as personal life). We stand firmly for universal human rights – including gender equality, freedom of conscience, and freedom of speech and expression.
