The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

a Middle Eastern Jew.

You have a South Arctic Jew, like a Mediterranean Jew.

And in Israel, most of the Jews are not Ashkenazi.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs

They're not, you know, German, Polish looking.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs

I made a comment once and I said that in Israel, you've never had a Mizrahi Jew that looks like me as prime minister.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs

Now that's a very sensitive subject for Israel and I don't need to go back into it anymore.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

You know what I'm saying?

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

Like that's something that I've sort of dropped.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs

It was last November that I brought this up, but that got, I got a lot of pushback.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs

One part of it.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs

The other part of it stems from me saying that the Jewish community is horrible at PR.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

And many Jews, if I say to them, hey, we got 10 European Jews talking about Iran and Israel at this Jewish conference, then they cancel me, the one Iranian Jew.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

I have an empathy for both countries.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

I actually try to bridge both countries.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

And I think a lot of the European Jews are trying to do that too.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

But it doesn't exactly build trust when you cancel the one Iranian Jew who has a large following of Iranians.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

I get a lot of trust from Iranian Jews, similar to how you would get with British.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

We have a lot of things in common.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs
Britain WILL Become The Next Islamic State: Nima Yamini

I'm Iranian.

The Dozen with Liam Tuffs

My faith is Jewish.
