This course examines the origins, controversies, and proposed resolutions of the Arab-Israeli conflict. The first session considers the creation of the state of Israel and whether the Jewish state was “born in sin.” Session two asks whether Israel can be considered a democracy given that it privileges one group (Israeli Jews) over others. In session three we look at the reasons behind America’s extraordinary support for Israel and whether such support is now in jeopardy. We conclude with the impact of October 7 and its aftermath on Israel’s place in the world. The class will include both lecture and discussion. Vigorous debate is encouraged.

This class is for the curious and those open to learning, not for those seeking to wave a flag of certainty or push a specific agenda.
