Waleed Aly Career

Legal and academic career

After graduating, Aly served as an associate for Family Court judge Joseph Kay and then as a solicitor for Maddocks Lawyers in Melbourne. He began his career with the Human Rights Law Centre in 2006 on secondment from Maddocks.

People Like Us, a 2007 book by Aly Fischer, discusses how arrogance is dividing Islam and the West.

In 2008, he was selected to participate in the Australia 2020 Summit, a bipartisan convention held in Canberra to "help shape the country's long-term vision."

Aly is a Monash University staff member of the Global Terrorism Research Centre. He has said that the bulk of the Middle East's conflicts can be traced back to the arbitrary way in which its territories were divided by Western powers as a result of continued demand for Middle Eastern oil and later by events like the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Following the Boston Marathon bombing, President Barack Obama said that terrorism is now "perpetual irritant."

'What are you by the way? During Israel and Gaza ceasefire talks, you're just brown: Blunt Miriam Margolyes leaves Australia's talk show host speechless

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 21, 2024
During today's episode, Waleed Aly, the host of Australian Channel 10's current affairs show 'The Project,' found himself temporarily at a loss for words. Margolyes, a Jew, has called for a prompt halt in the discussion, a move that seems to have resonance with the studio audience. 'Ceasefire now,' she cried. It doesn't matter if you're black or white.' She then turned to Aly and asked bluntly: 'What are you by the way? You're kind of brown.' Aly, who was born in Egypt, was taken aback by his parents' ancestorship, but he lowered his head in a chuckle a few minutes later.

Miriam Margolyes' blunt line of questioning leaves Waleed Aly speechless on The Project: 'That did not go as predicted!'

During Thursday's episode, Project host Waleed Aly discovered himself momentarily at a loss for words, owing to a brazen line of questioning from Miriam Margolyes. When discussing her forthcoming television project, the British-Australian actress, who was on the show as a guess panelist, was keen to share her thoughts on Gaza's turbulent situation. Margolyes, a Jewish immigrant, has called for an immediate ceasefire out of the blue, a decision that seemed to connect with the studio audience.

Fiery moment Jacqui Lambie erupts over Tasmania's new AFL team in tense exchange with The Project's Sarah Harris: 'That's rubbish!'

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 18, 2024
Despite the fact that Ms Lambie supports the establishment of a new franchise hailing from Tasmania in the AFL, she is strongly opposed to the construction of a new 23,000-seat stadium, which would cost the state government approximately $375 million. The new squad's arrival is dependent on the stadium's construction, but Ms Lambie maintains that the money can be better spent elsewhere.
