Jacob Goldberg Annual Lecture Series

America’s and Israel’s Dilemma:
Turning Multi-Islamic/Arab challenges into political opportunities. 2010 is going to be a critical year in Middle East politics in three areas:

• Monday, April 12, 7:30 P.M.
Has the issue of the settlements been an obstacle in the Arab-Israeli peace process? Does it threaten the fabric of American-Israeli relations?

• Tuesday, April 13, 7:30 P.M.
As Israeli-Palestinian peace talks are to resume, can both sides make “painful decisions?” Are Syria and Israel ready for a peace process which entails significant concessions but may reshape Lebanon and weaken the Iran-Hizballah alliance? •Wednesday, April 14, 7:30 P.M.

• Wednesday, April 14, 7:30 P.M.
Iran's nuclear drive is approaching the point-of-no-return—will the Western world rise to the challenge? If not, how should Israel act when facing a moment of truth?
