It has been 50 years since the Six-Day War and the capture of territory that Israel occupies to this day.

On June 22, we’ll hear from two Israelis who are keeping Israel’s occupation of the West Bank on the public agenda. Join former Shin Bet security service director and navy commander Maj. Gen. (res.) Ami Ayalon, well known for his testimony in The Gatekeepers, and Rabbi Arik Ascherman, founder of Rabbis for Human Rights and Haqel: Jews and Arabs in Defense of Human Rights. They will share their firsthand knowledge and experience of the occupation’s impact on Israeli and Arab society, as well as their vision for an Israel that embodies the highest Jewish and democratic values.

Conflicts do end. Come hear from committed veteran Israelis who are shaping the public discourse on the conflict and forging the way forward.
