 Posted by Aron on March 09 2006 (Thursday) : 08:19 AMWe had to move a whole bunch of sites from our old server to our new, and the process took a few weeks. As a result, I wasn't able to post to the blog. First post is to inform all my New York readers about an event Thursday evening at 8 PM at the NYU campus.
NYU Kimmel Center
Doors open at 7:30. No reservations required, After a tumultuous year on both sides of the conflict, Israelis and Palestinians face extraordinarily difficult choices, challenges, and questions. Scholars and journalists are torn between cautious optimism and bitter pessimism. What does the future hold for Israel/Palestine? Will the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza help bring peace? Has Sharon's illness created a new political reality? Does Hamas' victory signal the end of the peace process? And how are these events analyzed in the United States and elsewhere? The Israel Forum and the Remarque Institute are pleased to welcome Gidon Levy, editorialist and commentator for Ha'aretz; Christopher Hitchens, independent author and journalist; and Elias Khouri, Global Distinguished Professor of Middle Eastern Studies at New York University. The discussion will be presented by Tony Judt, director of the Remarque Institute and Erich Maria Remarque Professor of European Studies at New York University. < | >

"It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it." -Eleanor Roosevelt "Let them call me a rebel and welcome. I feel no concern from it. But should I suffer the misery of devils, were I to make a whore of my soul" -Thomas Paine | |
