With a late start to the show, which is totally B.C. Dodge’s fault, the Raw Islam Podcast jumps right into the topic on hand which is… are Muslims Anti-Semitic?

With all the things that are happening in the news cycle, Ilhan Omar is what the listeners of the Raw Islam Podcast wanted to talk about, so we will save all the politicians doing blackface for a later date.

In the past few days Representative Omar had come under fire for some of her posts on Twitter. Many people say her comments on pro-Israeli Government as being anti-Semitic. Which really leads to the question of – Can one be anti-Israeli Government and still be “pro-Semitic”? Or are the two mutually exclusive?

And not to place spoilers in the write-up of the show, but Imam Azhar answers the question point blank with a simple “No.”

Islam does not teach anyone to hate anyone else for their beliefs, their skin tone, their location, their income, or any other facet of what makes a person be a person.

But it still does not answer the question – Can one be anti-Israeli Government and still be “pro-Semitic”?
