Philosophy professor Jeff Noonan will discuss the war on terror and Donald Trump’s Islamophobia in the context of decades of Western intervention in the Middle East during a free public presentation Thursday in Alumni Hall’s McPherson Lounge.
These interventions have destabilized societies and led to hundreds of thousands of deaths across the region, Dr. Noonan says: “Understanding this historical context is essential for making reasoned political decisions that can help the cause of peace and self-determination.”
The event, presented by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Students Association, is titled “Islam and the New World Order” and will begin at 6 p.m. February 16. The association promises an Islamic perspective on solving global conflicts and achieving world peace.
