In early October 2023, there seemed to be much reason for optimism about the future of the Middle East. Plans and projects for regional integration were in progress, a Saudi - Israeli normalization looked in the cards. A broader process of conflict resolution was moving forward in the region,
October 7th and its aftermath reversed these trends. Professor Krasna will discuss the current situation, and the outlook for Israel, and for regional politics and security.
