But despite all of the available information and analysis, at this juncture many of us have more questions than answers.
We invite you and your friends to join the Schusterman Family Foundation and the ROI Community of Young Jewish Innovators on a call with top Middle East expert, David Makovsky, who will help us sift through the noise to reach a deeper understanding of the situation and its implications for the region, for the U.S. and for Israel.
The one-hour briefing and Q&A session is scheduled for:
Wednesday, February 9, 2011
Noon-1:00 pm EST
North America (toll-free): (800) 553-0318
International: (612) 332-0802
Conference ID: Middle East Briefing
We are honored to be joined by David Makovsky, Ziegler Distinguished Fellow and Director of The Washington Institute’s Project on the Middle East Peace Process. He is the coauthor with Dennis Ross of the 2009 book Myths, Illusions, and Peace: Finding a New Direction for America in the Middle East, and he recently released the study Imagining the Border: Options for Resolving the Israeli-Palestinian Territorial Issue. David has shared his insights about the current situation in the New York Times and on NPR and “To the Point” with Warren Olney.
David will provide us with a high-level briefing and then take your questions. The call will be moderated by Sandy Cardin, President of the Schusterman Family Foundation.
We really hope you can participate in the discussion. RSVP is not required, but we would love to know if you are planning on joining us. Please feel free to reach out to Roben Kantor at rkantor@schusterman.org to confirm your participation or with any questions.
