    This interview was conducted in 2008. Tariq Ali is a great intellect but sometimes he seems to point out too often he predicted this and that. Well here, Ali predicted the Arab social revolutions starting early this year 2011. He also predicted the fall of "new labour" to the tory/lib dem coalition. So I guess there is something to this other genius he possesses . Another fine interview in Kreisler's series

    Tariq Ali is just a wonderful human being who shows what real humanity strives for, he describes so well the way that the corporate capitalists are killing the aspiration of the citizens of the world.

    Who is this Moneve he mentions?
    "If you go into a café in Cairo, or Damascus, or Saudi Arabia, the population, the citizens sitting with each other around the table, drinking coffee and talking, are engaged in discussion of everything -- politics, culture, the latest novel by Moneve, the latest novel by Mahfouz."

    @gudara3000 11 лет назад +6

    An intellectual of Ali's caliber makes such blanket statements that makes me examine his other proclamations. He says biology was not taught in Muslim countries when he was growing up. That is absolutely wrong. It was taught in Afghanistan starting from 7th grade through 12th grade. It was a mandatory course. His comments about Islamic reformation, granted "4 times call to prayer" was a slip of the tongue, are absurd.
    The words of God can't be reformed. Tahajud, of course, is another matter.

      Aziz Budri There isn’t all that much evidence to indicate that the word of God is actually the word of God, it may well have been written by a human. I think what Tariq was trying to say is that when he went to school during the late 1940’s and early 1950’s (in a post-partition Pakistan), they were still dominated by religious fundamentalism which made it nigh on impossible to impart scientific knowledge in an objective and unbiased manner.

    excellent talk, even though I disagree to tariq ali's views and knowledge of islam and religion. it just represents the conditioning and programming of prolonged distorted thinking.however the views about capitalism are definitely true

  • @AllamaMashriqi
    @AllamaMashriqi 12 лет назад +1

    Listen to scholar & historian Nasim Yousaf's speech about Allama Mashriqi and the partition of India on RUclips. He said, "Remember, history is unforgiving to nations that mutilate their past. I urge you to wake-up and realize why India was divided. Pakistan and India’s history is written under the influence of the All-India Muslim League and the Indian National Congress respectively; it is nothing but a pack of utter lies. The All-India Muslim League’s slogans of Hindu domination and Islam..."

    @discoverednotcreated 9 лет назад +3

    I'm sorry, but is he at 33:50 blaming the fact that Islam didn't have a wide spread reformation on the friggin Spanish?? The only way Islam can "reform" is if the Spanish give up their liberty and remain under Muslim control? Is he saying Islam needs the West's culture and the assistance to achieve progress? That sounds hopeless and defeatist. I think playing the victim is part of their problem -- case in point right here.
    .. Also some call Wahabism the "reformation" of Islam.

    nizar Qhabbani is a tunesian poet, very very beloved in the way Arab world( which is a both poetic and beautyful as much as prmeaval and violent place
    Perhaps peotry allows to work as a valve against this re emergence of rampant islamic fundamentalism
    I also understand that this is a reaction to American imerialsim and European ,too
    Dumbing down in US Tv i think thats quite true

    @gudara3000 11 лет назад +1

    Just look at Christianity. There are over 34,000 different denominations. It has become unrecognizable. Yes, there are matters that are not discussed in Islam or any other religion for that matter, such as "organ transplant." That is when Muslim scholars, not non-Muslims, do the "tahajud," (a gathering of Muslim scholars for the purpose of answering questions of the modern times) and come up with the best possible answer that does agree with both the letter and the spirit of Islam.

    @emotionalinvalid 12 лет назад +1

    Ali is a fine writer and even more important is his activism and nonfiction critical of empire and promoting socialism. But what what turns me off here, is that Ali just seems to be reveling in his genius and rarified social circle. A little modesty please.
