In his recent column, historian Gil Troy wrote, “Caricaturing the Israeli government as worse than it is, and Israeli democracy as more fragile than it is, is a gift to the bash-Israel-firsters in the media, the professoriate, Congress and the State Department, and the rabbinate, many of whom feel vindicated by the impression that Israel is in crisis—even as each new wave of protests demonstrates the strength of Israel’s democratic culture.” Given the inflammatory headlines we read daily about the demise of Israel’s democracy, we invite you to join us for an insightful conversation with Professor Troy who will be discussing the current state of Israel’s political and cultural challenges emanating from proposed government policies, all in the context of its national security challenges and the stability of its democratic principles.
