Join Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Michael Doran and former Ambassador of Israel to the United States, Ron Dermer, to discuss the current conflict between Israel and Hamas. The outbreak of hostilities in Gaza has surprised Israeli defense analysts, and is an early test of the U.S.-Israeli relations in the Biden era. Domestically, the conflict has reshuffled the political cards in Israel’s complex negotiations to form a new government. What motivated Hamas to attack Israel now? How is the Biden administration handling this foreign policy test? Please join Hudson Institute for this timely discussion.

Gazan Humanitarian Foundation Chairman Johnnie Moore on How Food Distribution Could Determine Hamas’s Fate

Reverend Moore will also discuss how the GHF can help distribute UN food aid that is currently sequestered in trucks inside the Gaza strip—a request that the secretary general and his deputy at the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) have thus far ignored.
