92nd Street Y (92Y) says…

Eliot Spitzer, moderator

Debate over American policy in the Middle East is broadening. Should military solutions or diplomatic ones be favored? What is the role of pro-Israel advocacy at a time of changing relationships between the U.S. and Israel? Has J Street helped or hurt the prospects for peace? Does the traditional lobby speak for all, or even most, American Jews? Join Alan Dershowitz, who has been called “Israel’s top defender in the court of public opinion,” and Jeremy Ben-Ami, the founder and director of J Street, as they wrestle with these and other issues. The audience decides who makes his case best.
