Israel At War

The JCC is hosting a briefing in our Dance Hall as Avi Melamed speaks to us direct from Israel, via Zoom. Avi is a Middle East intelligence analyst, former senior advisor on Arab affairs, commentator, and author of Inside the Middle East | Entering a New Era.
Because of the Hamas strike on Israel, Avi will be pivoting his original presentation to a special briefing titled “Israel at War: Hamas and the Islamic Jihad Launched a War Against Israel | A Pivotal Moment.” Please join us for this important conversation.
