Israel, Immigration & Islam - Douglas Murray
"In this conversation, John sits down with journalist and author Douglas Murray to discuss the war on Western culture in light of the recent conflict between Israel and Hamas. Murray argues that Western Civilisation is being eroded by the collapse of history, faith and moral clarity. This cultural decay, Murray suggests, has been caused by a variety of factors including illegal immigration, secularisation, identity politics and the rise of radical Islam. Nonetheless, Murray is encouraged by the growing support for initiatives like the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) and a common sense middle class who reject elitist identity politics. Douglas Murray is the author of 7 books and a journalist based in Britain. He has been a contributor to The Spectator since 2000 and has been Associate Editor at the magazine since 2012. He has also written regularly for numerous other outlets including The Wall Street Journal, The Times, The Sunday Times, The Sun, The Evening Standard and The New Criterion. He is a regular contributor to National Review and has been a columnist for Standpoint magazine since its founding. In his latest books, "The War on the West" and "The Madness of Crowds", Murray examines the twenty-first century’s most divisive issues: sexuality, gender, history and race. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00:00 Courage Culture 05:34 Cancel Culture 09:33 Resistance to the Mainstream Narrative 11:38 The Voice to Parliament 15:03 Is the West Good? 18:05 The Politics of History 23:03 The Dangers of Multiculturalism 26:53 Antisemitism and Immigration 28:24 The Hamas Terrorist Attack 33:07 What is a Proportional Response? 35:59 Islam and the West 38:55 Palestine and Hamas 41:49 Terror Attacks in the West 44:20 The Hypocrisy of Rejecting Christianity 48:36 Christianity and Islam 55:18 Christianity and the Wellspring of Civilisation 58:36 The Consequences of Illegal Immigration -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Conversations feature John Anderson, former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, interviewing the world's foremost thought leaders about today's pressing social, cultural and political issues.
