On October 30, 2026 By MPAC
In this clip from Episode 12 of The MPAC Podcast, host Salam Al-Marayati and award-winning journalist Karen Attiah confront the core reality of U.S. foreign policy and civil rights. Salam examines how institutional Islamophobia is rooted directly in state policies and anti-Palestinian racism, while Karen cuts through linguistic debates to ask the defining question facing citizens: what is our moral and civic responsibility to stop the funding and political cover fueling mass atrocities? The views, statements, and opinions expressed by guests on The MPAC Podcast are solely those of the individual guest and do not necessarily reflect the official policy, position, or views of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC), host Salam Al-Marayati, its leadership, board, or staff.

This time, the aggression is masked as a matter of “Israel’s security,” but in reality, it serves a dangerous agenda of expansionism and domination over sovereign nations and peoples. Trita Parsi, Executive Vice President of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft joined MPAC President Salam Al-Marayati for a critical conversation about Israel’s War with Iran: what’s at stake, who is driving it, and how we can resist another disastrous conflict. ---------- Subscribe to MPAC's channel: http://bit.ly/MPACYouTube Like MPAC on Facebook: http://fb.com/mpacnational Follow MPAC on Twitter: http://twitter.com/mpac_national Follow MPAC on Instagram: http://instagram.com/mpac_national Visit MPAC's website: http://mpac.org About the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) We improve public understanding and policies that impact American Muslims by engaging our government, media, and communities.
