Front & Center with John Callaway, "Israel: A Strategic Review" March 27, 2008

ISRAEL: A STRATEGIC REVIEW

WHAT: Front & Center with John Callaway, Chicago’s only monthly public affairs program on military affairs, takes a look at the strategic position and interests of Israel.

WHY: With the Iraq war a key focal point in the presidential primaries, Israel garners few headlines. Yet the strategic interests of this long-time American partner are critical to the future of stability in the Middle East. How do the goals and ambitions of Israel mesh with U.S. policy and what are the main points of strategic difference?

WHERE: Pritzker Military Library, 610 N. Fairbanks Court, Chicago.

WHEN: The presentation and live webcast will begin on Thursday, March 27th, at 6:00 p.m.

HOW: This program is free and open to the public. Seating for this event is limited, so reservations are strongly recommended. Call 312.587.0234 or email [email protected].

WHO: Veteran Chicago journalist John Callaway moderates discussion with a panel including Barukh Binah, Consul General of Israel in Chicago, and Raja Kamal from the University of Chicago.
