I was Muslim. Here’s the Truth About “Muslims Love Jesus.”

Date released: 4/16/2026

A growing narrative is being pushed into Christian communities claiming that Islam “honors” Jesus—often not to promote understanding, but to weaponize faith against the Jewish people and the State of Israel. This week, we examine how that message is being used, what Islamic sources actually say about Jesus, and why some voices are so eager to distort truth in order to build hostility toward Israel and the Jewish community.

Why this Ceasefire Changes Everything

Date released: 04/09/2026

A two-week “ceasefire” comes into effect between the United States and the regime in Iran. Will this lead to an end to the war? It’s impossible to know as negotiations begin this weekend in Pakistan. While a decisive blow was struck to the regime, we must remember the nature of the evil regime and its repeated crimes. Domestically, the talking heads who claim to love America eagerly cheered on our adversary while creating division and lining their own pockets.

Palm Sunday, War, and a Viral Lie About Israel

Date released: 04/02/2026

As Israelis face a relentless barrage of missiles from the Iranian regime, a flashpoint in Jerusalem is being weaponized by anti-Israel voices to push the false claim that the Jewish state is anti-Christian. This week, we break down the facts behind the incident, expose how real Christian persecution across the region is being ignored, and confront how the message of Jesus is being distorted by those claiming His name to justify hostility toward the Jewish people.

But the battle today isn’t only military—it’s also a fight against misinformation online. This episode breaks down the facts and why speaking the truth has never mattered more.

Imagine living like this in 2026…

Date released: 03/26/2026

As antisemitic attacks rise worldwide, a dangerous pattern is being ignored. This episode exposes the growing violence targeting Jewish communities and the emergence of Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya—a group already linked to attacks in Europe.

In a moment that demands moral clarity, we stand with our Jewish community—both in America and in Israel.

Meet Your Host

Kasim Hafeez

Kasim Hafeez is a British citizen of Pakistani Muslim heritage who grew up being exposed to radical anti-Western, antisemitic, and anti-Israel ideas daily. During his teenage years, Kasim embraced a radical Islamist ideology and became very active in the anti-Israel movement. Thankfully, Alan Dershowitz’s book The Case for Israel challenged Kasim’s fundamental beliefs and caused him to undertake a period of research and reflection that led him to Israel in 2007. Witnessing the true nature of the Jewish state changed Kasim’s perception of Israel. He felt a moral obligation to publicly speak out for Israel and the dangers of radical Islam. He has spoken all over the world including the 2013 Global Forum on Combatting Antisemitism and before the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva. Kasim has appeared on radio, television, and in print media. Kasim also appears alongside Holocaust survivor Irving Roth in CUFI’s full-length feature documentary Never Again?.
