About this Event
The Middle East is in a transition period with serious consequences beyond the region. From Israel’s war in Gaza, Lebanon and the role of Iran, Egypt, the Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and even the Russians and Chinese, the future of the region is uncertain, especially the goal of a "two-state solution" given the Jewish settlements in the West Bank.
Last month, Dr. Steven Cook spoke to our WAC chapter on the Middle East in a Zoom program with WorldNewsNow. He is the author of the book "The End of Ambition: America's Past, Present and Future in the Middle East." He suggests choosing priorities "based on interests that are achievable at an acceptable cost." Dr. Cook recommends the phase-out of U.S. Military aid over the next decade while agreeing to treaties and agreements "guaranteeing cooperation on security, technology, and intelligence."
What is your perception of the situation—the issues and, more importantly, your ideas for a solution? Please join us for a lovely discussion.
Dr. Cooks's presentation is on YouTube; if you have time to watch it—please see the link below.
