The Real Reason There’s No Peace… | Mordechai Kedar

Why has every major attempt at peace in the Middle East eventually broken down? In this eye-opening conversation, renowned Middle East scholar *Dr. Mordechai Kedar* joins Channel 18 to explain why the conflict cannot be understood through politics alone. Drawing on decades of research into the Arabic language, Islamic history, and Middle Eastern culture, Dr. Kedar argues that religion plays a central role in shaping the region's conflicts, alliances, and worldview. During this interview, he discusses: • Why he believes permanent peace has remained elusive in the Middle East. • The role religion plays in regional politics and conflict. • How Israel is viewed by many throughout the Middle East. • The theological and historical perspectives that influence attitudes toward Israel. • The difference between extremist movements and countries that have chosen normalization. • Why nations such as the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Morocco pursued peace with Israel. • The historical significance of the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah and why it is frequently discussed in conversations about Islamic history and diplomacy. • What Israel must do, in his view, to ensure its long-term security and survival. Whether you agree with every conclusion or simply want to better understand one of the most complex conflicts in modern history, this conversation offers a perspective that is rarely heard in mainstream media.
