DEVELOPMENTS AFFECTING ISRAEL AND THE JEWISH DIASPORA
The pace of developments affecting Israel and Jews in the Diaspora has accelerated in recent months:
- Resurgent Anti-Semitism resulting in attacks over the Hanukkah season
- Trump’s peace plan
- Qassem Suleimani’s assassination
- The effect of Corbyn-esque Anti-Semitism in the UK general election
- Anti-Semitic attacks in New York during Hanukkah season.
Join us for a briefing and discussion where we consider the following questions (among others):
- Has Corbyn-esque anti-semitism infected the NZ Labour party and the American Democratic party?
- Are the attacks in New York evidence that anti-Semitism is gaining momentum in the African-American community?
- How might Israel’s security be affected following the assassination of Iranian General, Qassem Suleimani?
- What is the Trump peace plan and its likely consequences?
Facilitated by Michael Thomas, Kate Macpherson, Rebecca Marchand and Tony Kan.
Date and time: Sunday, February 23, 2pm.
Venue: Hao Room, Halswell Centre, 341 Halswell Rd.
Admission: Please bring a plate of finger food (no seafood or pork-based products please).
