There is a huge difference between Judaism and Zionism and this needs to be recognized, clearly acknowledged and appreciated. So much respect to Prof. Avi
My father was born in Baghdad in 1934 to Assyrian Christian parents. My father would tell me all the time that when he was a kid in Iraq no one cared about Muslim, Jew, or Christian. Most people lived together, celebrated each other’s holiday together and were genuinely friends. Everything changed as he got older, not just for Jews, but even for Christians..however Jews fled to Israel, all the other minorities had no where to go.
Thank you for sharing your families story. It sounds like what Syrians told me. You are very close with your neighbors and share food daily, but you would never ask them about their religion. Because it doesn't matter.
Two thumbs up to Ash Sarkar for her unbiased intellectual curiosity. Thank you Prof. Avi Shlaim for warming my heart. I am a 74 years old Christian from Egypt and I remember those beautiful days when we celebrated Sabbath next door with my Muslim neighbours. I will never forget
But its not unbiased, its whitewashed over, its nonsense propaganda. Yehudi lived under apartheid for the most part in the Moslem world, despite certain periods of freedom when there was SECULAR rule. The Farhud happened in 1941 before Yizreal even existed.
Thank you so much for this great informative interview. We, Arabs, are so proud of great person like Dr. Avi Shalim. Your honesty and humanity should be a role model for all people. I am Muslim and I thank you so much for your honesty and standing with rights and justice. All respect.
Ash Sarkar did a wonderful job on the interview, far better than most big name news anchors on the cable channels. And Avi Shlaim is a store house of wisdom on the Israel Problem. Excellent interview.

Please listen carefully It answers all sorts of questions Some pretend that there are no Arab Jews The question is clearly explained here Jews used to be Tunisians, Irakis, Yemenis when there was Palestine and a tiny Isrsrael It is amazing the rapidity with which Jews from all over the world threw off their Arab identity to prone that of a new colonising state😊
I don't think all of them decided freely it was a series of events orchestrated by israel with arab falling to recognise that israel was using them to gain a group of new population to help them grow their settlement
Ezekiel foretold In the latter part of the years the Arabs and Israelites were dwelling together in security without disturbance until the Balfour Declaration came upon them to get a big spoil of wealth and property.
Avi Shlaim is such a gentle soul. I really love listening to him, he can speak on these tragedies as tragedy and help us all to connect with the sadness of it all.
Great interview Ash. What a wonderful man explaining true history to the people to have a much less known account. Much respect Avi Shleim. May God grant you a long healthy life and happiness.
As an Iraqi, I always heard stories from my grandparents about the Iraqi Jews. I don’t remember ever hearing negative stories or comments. It’s devastating and true nekba to the Palestinians first and foremost, and the rest of the Arab region regards of what religion people where from. As sad as I am to all the lose the Middle East suffered from colonialism, I am still hopeful because the culture we carry has been in the making for thousands of years, the foundation is strong and true history lives on. Thank for such an intellect conversation, Avi is such a wonderful human being, a national treasure.
Middle East colonised by many long before the Europeans ever went there. Biggest coloniser the Arab tribes that converted to the youngest religion in the world. Spread by the sword!.
An outstanding interview. Ash was well prepared as how should an intelligent journalist should be. And Prof Avi, was so scholarly clear talking like in a great class of history. Thanks Novara Media for been so outstanding in journalism.
sure did, have you seen the images of the British army hung by the irgun terrorist group, its called The Sergeants affair. Also the kling David hotel bombing where 91 people were murdered also by the irgun. A member being David Ben-Gurion the founder/1st pm of israel.
@@pennyred6195 Yes, the Brits should NOTt have stopped J immigrationto Israel - against the wishes of the League of Nations (ie international law at the time) By the way, those hangings were revenge against British hangings of IZL members.
What a beautiful, gentle soul this wonderful man is. I hope and pray that, after the liberation of Paleatine, this peaceful coexistence that he talks about can return to Weatern Asia. Free Palestine for the sake of Palestinians and Jews. 🇵🇸🍉🇵🇸
Political Islam now days has totally different mentally from what the Arabs Muslims culture in general and their consideration to the minorities and other religions tolerance . The extremism and fanatical movements of the political Islamic movements now days around the Arabs world don’t believe in coexistence of religions and refuse to even accept the right of others people to have their religions… Look like they are stepping back instead of advancing.
Agree completely. What a delightful interview. You cannot compare this amazing gentleman, Prof Avi Schlaim, with the other Prof Norman F………..something.
Probably the best interview I've ever seen, period. Profoundly interesting, fact-based, intelligent and informative. Well done Ash and the team for bringing this scholarly insight into one of the most troubling conflicts of our times.
This Iranian Jew is talking nonsense because it gets him platformed. Keep in mind this is blatant tokenism. It's like claiming Israelis love Gazans because they just love Middle Eastern food. It's like saying you understand the Black experience because you watch Candace Owens.
Professor Shlaim is such a treasure. I LOVE listening to him and wish he could go on forever. His message is always so wise, compassionate, measured and clear, which is unfortunately too rare these days.
Tremendous. I love being helped to understand historic situations. This video should be watched in schools, everywhere far and wide. Hanx Ash et Avi xx
Thanks Ash for this very informative and touching interview with Prof Shlaim. He articulates his thoughts in such a charming, poetic, and yet factual and convincing way. You can almost see the streets of his lost multiethnic and cosmopolitan Bagdad.
Listening to Avi Shlaim is so uplifting. What a calm, principled, moral voice. Recently read his book Three Worlds. I highly recommend it. Thank you for having him on, Ash. Excellent interview.
@@shahidha4986 UA-cam deletes my comments so I'm rewriting this one. It's an autobiography with political analysis. Shlaim talks about the ethnically diverse community in Iraq and growing up as an "Arab Jew." The founding of the state of Israel threw the whole situation into disarray. Anyway, it's a great book.
Dear Ash I have just watched your fascinating dialogue with Abi Shlaim. So glad you have captured so much knowledge on the video. I have to watch it again. Thank you
I love Avi. What an amazing man. How we have come to seeing little kids blown to bits by the thouands. Every day I see it on X. Its just soul destroying. I can hardly bear it from afar, God help those living in the grip of this genocide with zero power, no ability to flee. No home, no food, no shelter, even tents are bombed, hospitals, medics bombed for nearly 10 months now.
Very thankful to learn from Mr. Avi Shlaim. His ability to break down something as complex as this all the while getting to the meat and potatoes is certainly a skill.
@@BFF410the land of Israel is Africa the negroes are the Israelites the children of Jacob and Jews are not a people it's a religion and they are not chosen.
Thank you to you both. I’m old enough to remember listening as a young man to elderly men that still had clear recollections of their experiences, and the moral integrity to speak, without a fear of needing to comply with the mob. I loved as a boy attending the Domayne and hearing men of all walks atop their soap boxes speaking freely. Very sad to know that this is a thing of History, and never to be repeated.
Many Israelis would agree with dr Shlaim about Israel today and how it got here. Thank you for this intelligent interview the interviewer was wonderful.
Excellent interview. Avi Shlaim is a beacon of light and moderation in these dark days of extremism taking over the mainstream media. He makes very strong and compelling points about separating the idea of jewishness from Israel, and I loved the closing idea of Hybrid Identity.
We love you Avi you’re Iraqi hero we proud of you brother, I would love to see some old pictures from Iraq specially from the time you lived there. Maybe in the next interview. I am Muslim from Iraq, living in the UK London
What a wonderful interview! Avi Shaim is very brave to tell the truth about Zionism and its affect on the Middle Eastern Jews. My admiration for him is immense. I will certainly alert my friends regarding this video. Thank you Novara Media for this.
You give me hope! You speak from a position of integrity and wisdom. Your voice is needed. The truth is what is required to set all of humanity free. When we go to the root, we have the same parents. When will we stop the bully from dividing us and live as a family?

What about Arab oppression of the Kurds? I hope you support Kurdish independence. And that you also oppose the Turkish occupation and ethnic cleansings of Cyprus and Syria as well.
Avi Shlain is a brilliant academic and a beautiful human being. I love listening to him, he gives me hope for the possibility of a better world where people can live together in a free Palestine, just as it existed in the past and so it can be again. We have proved it in south africa where, while there remains much work to be done, nevertheless people have come a long way to be able to live together with far more understanding, less fear and prejudice than anyone imagined possible.

Novara Media: This is the Breakthrough in forming and educating ourselves that has been missing to 'ordinary folk' - I am nearly 70yrs of age - Never was this history discussed, debated, even acknowledged. Totally missing from our education - It is obvious why History and International Awareness is restricted. You Media are providing a generation with the opportunity to know the Truth - and the Truth will set us free! This is excellent work, vital work, essential work in such a format that people must be gin to breakdown the down the ignorance, the straightjackets that the 'forced impact' of not concentrating for longer periods upon History. Piece meal or the briefest of brief flashes of ideas/history is a softminded guide approach to enforced ignorance. And hence, a whole policy of keeping folk ignorant - strictly focused upon consumerism and self. Please keep up this excellent informative work.
What an interesting interview. Novara Downstream, you have excelled again in inviting this wonderful intellectual into conversation with Ash. His exposition of the history and experience of being an Arab jew was an important contribution towards understanding this complex region. Peace for Palestine.
That's a lot of myth busting right there. The sad thing about what has happened to Diaspora Jews, is the loss of their extremely diverse and in many ways unique culture from the countries in Europe and the Middle East where they lived for millennia.
Excellent podcast dear. May Almighty bless you with the success you deserve. Well done. For your guest,I salute your honesty and your service towards educating public win the midst of propaganda.
Thank you for an informative and impressively lucid interview. I watched it in three pieces, making notes as if I were young and in a lecture theatre. I am moved by the thoroughness of the interviewer. Each question was asked with the greatest care and thoughtfulness creating a flow in the conversation which made it a pleasure to watch. Excellently done. As for Mr. Avi Shalom, I am so glad I found out about him. I appreciate the calm and precise manner in which he renders bit by bit the most important information about this piece of history. Thank you so much.
Thank you Prof Avi Shlaim for your most clear,precise NEEDED history lesson. Clarifying the true facts and events leading to the horrific genecide the Israeli govt continues to get away with World politicians should heed your words ,implement sanctions and stop arming Israeli IDF
Thank you so much for that. Avi Shlaim is always worth listening to and the conversation went around so many interesting ideas. Must read that last book!
A true patriot questions their community's values all the time they don't just blindly accept them. This great patriot does exactly that. I truly love these green islands of ours but I'm not happy with those that rule them or aspire to rule them.
There is a huge difference between Judaism and Zionism and this needs to be recognized, clearly acknowledged and appreciated. So much respect to Prof. Avi
I think Gaaazaaa has pushed most people around the world to make the distinction! Hopefully, everyone will follow suit!!!
It's hard to separate and divide the two when Israel seeks the opposite to conflate the two

It is amazing the rapidity with which Jews from all over the world threw off their Arab identity to prone that of a new colonising state😊
Losing our Arab Jews, our fellow citizens, is a massive loss to the Arab world

@@dovic86 thank you ...I think I may have seen the pappe one. I pray chomsky is ok 😔 I must look at the Finklestien one again . Maybe it was when I wasn't very familler with Novara.

Novara Media: This is the Breakthrough in forming and educating ourselves that has been missing to 'ordinary folk' - I am nearly 70yrs of age - Never was this history discussed, debated, even acknowledged. Totally missing from our education - It is obvious why History and International Awareness is restricted. You Media are providing a generation with the opportunity to know the Truth - and the Truth will set us free! This is excellent work, vital work, essential work in such a format that people must be gin to breakdown the down the ignorance, the straightjackets that the 'forced impact' of not concentrating for longer periods upon History. Piece meal or the briefest of brief flashes of ideas/history is a softminded guide approach to enforced ignorance. And hence, a whole policy of keeping folk ignorant - strictly focused upon consumerism and self. Please keep up this excellent informative work.
What an interesting interview. Novara Downstream, you have excelled again in inviting this wonderful intellectual into conversation with Ash. His exposition of the history and experience of being an Arab jew was an important contribution towards understanding this complex region. Peace for Palestine.
That's a lot of myth busting right there. The sad thing about what has happened to Diaspora Jews, is the loss of their extremely diverse and in many ways unique culture from the countries in Europe and the Middle East where they lived for millennia.
I always enjoy Avi Shlaim's talks. Such an insight into a long forgotten and hidden history.
Excellent podcast dear.
May Almighty bless you with the success you deserve. Well done.
For your guest,I salute your honesty and your service towards educating public win the midst of propaganda.
If there were many wise and honest people in the world like Prof. Avi Shlaim, the world would be such a peaceful and happy place!
Absolutely brilliant man. I'm so glad I discovered him. ❤️
Superb intro Ash 🎉
100% right
Great interview! Thank you both. ❤❤❤🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Bullshit
Thank you for an informative and impressively lucid interview. I watched it in three pieces, making notes as if I were young and in a lecture theatre. I am moved by the thoroughness of the interviewer. Each question was asked with the greatest care and thoughtfulness creating a flow in the conversation which made it a pleasure to watch. Excellently done. As for Mr. Avi Shalom, I am so glad I found out about him. I appreciate the calm and precise manner in which he renders bit by bit the most important information about this piece of history. Thank you so much.
This is very interesting and valueabble interview, it's kind of you, thanks
Thanks for response❤❤❤
Thank you Prof Avi Shlaim for your most clear,precise NEEDED history lesson. Clarifying the true facts and events leading to the horrific genecide the Israeli govt continues to get away with World politicians should heed your words ,implement sanctions and stop arming Israeli IDF
Avi is a beautiful soul, thank you for such amazing interview
This is beautiful...thank you, i myself understand this as it is and was my life then. Why did they destroy this beauty between us? Shame on Israel
I didn't know this, and it is important. Thank you both for educating us.
We need more gentle souls like this wonderful man.
All my respect Prof.
He is a brilliant man
Thank you so much for that. Avi Shlaim is always worth listening to and the conversation went around so many interesting ideas. Must read that last book!
A true patriot questions their community's values all the time they don't just blindly accept them. This great patriot does exactly that. I truly love these green islands of ours but I'm not happy with those that rule them or aspire to rule them.
What a brilliantly hosted, informative and touching interview
Big thanks to Dr. Shlaim for his frankness and honesty 🙋🏻♀️💐
