Episodes Notes

As the Taliban quickly sweeps back into power in Afghanistan, an Afghan-Canadian is calling on the federal government to also help Christians escape the chaos.

Zobair Deen served as a Political Analyst and Strategic Advisor for the NATO-ISAF mission from 2004-2014 in Afghanistan. He also remained involved in research and analysis of Violent Extremism in Afghanistan until 2019.  

Deen says that Christians are especially in danger in his home country and wants the Canadian government to earmark 1,000 visas for the immediate relocation of Afghan Christians from the country.
