Twenty-five years after 9/11, has America learned anything about the ideology that produced it?
Dr. Andrew Bostom has spent nearly a quarter century studying jihad, Islamic law, antisemitism, and the historical doctrines of Islam. His assessment is devastating: “Despite our best efforts, we’ve all failed.”
In this explosive conversation, Elizabeth Farah and Bostom examine why decades of warnings have failed to penetrate American institutions, how the academic study of Islam became dominated by apologetics, and why Bostom believes Western ideas of freedom are fundamentally at odds with traditional Islamic law.
Drawing from Islamic texts, historical scholarship, mosque sermons and his own research, Bostom traces the doctrines of jihad and Sharia from the earliest Islamic conquests to modern America. He also reveals what he discovered after investigating sermons at a Rhode Island mosque following the 2025 New Orleans terror attack, and why MEMRI told him even more extreme material was competing for its attention.
Farah presses the question beyond diagnosis: What can actually be done? The two discuss immigration, foreign funding of mosques, the responsibility of churches and local leaders, and Bostom’s support for a moratorium on Muslim immigration while America “figures some things out.”
After 25 years of warnings, the question is no longer whether the information exists. It’s whether America will act on it.
