Since Hamas’ onslaught on Israel on October 7th 2023, there have been many dramatic developments in the war. Iran’s main proxies – Hezbollah and Syria – have been degraded immensely. Hamas’ military leadership has been killed. There is a new administration in Washington. And a hostage deal has been signed.
Avi’s presentation will ponder these questions:
  • Has Israel won this war?
  • Can Israel win the peace?
  • What are some of the major challenges facing Israel & the U.S. in the coming months?
  • Where do Israelis stand on some of the big questions facing the Israeli government?
