This is a 30-minute preview of the new documentary "The Third Jihad" which focuses on homegrown radicalism and terrorism.
Dr. Zuhdi Jasser was involved in the creation of this documentary. He is a Syrian-American who formed the American Islamic Forum for Democracy. He argues that Muslims must take a stance against all terrorism carried out in the name of the Islamic religion. Jasser also believes that Muslims need to distance themselves from violent hadiths, suras and other passages in Islamic texts.
I have heard Jasser speak on several occasions. In one talk, Jasser spoke about the treatment of minorities under radical Islamic government in Syria. My mother is half Syrian. Several of my mother's relatives were killed in Syria. Jasser is one of the few Americans I know who recognizes that Jews suffered under Syrian and Islamic governments. Jasser opposes any imposition of shar'ia law.
