History of Palestinian/Israeli Conflict

11:00 am in the Celebration Center

Are you concerned about events in the Middle East? Unsure of how the situation reached this point, and what it means for Palestinians and Israelis? Please join us for a three-part program:

 

Conflict in the Holy Land:

Context and Perspectives

 

The first part on April 14th will be presented by a University of Arizona Middle East historian. It will be an overview of modern history in the Holy Land after World War I, to include how the State of Israel came to be and what happened to the Palestinians after that. 

 

The second part on April 21 will provide the Palestinian perspective on events, and will be presented by the University’s School of Middle Eastern and North African Studies. 

Palestinian/Israeli Conflict

The third, and final, part of the program will provide the Israeli perspective, and will be presented by the University’s Center for Judaic Studies.

 

All of the presenters are very interested in what questions you may have. To make sure your questions are addressed, we’ve set up an e-mail address to collect questions in advance:
