On Tuesday, October 16 at 7:00pm, the local “Justice First” group, which is dedicated to helping implement the Arab solution to the Jewish problem, will be holding a discussion at the “Peace and Justice” center at 202 Harvard, SE.

From the calendar listing on the “Peace and Justice” website, the event will be a “Discussion of the pro-Israel lobby and how it affects US foreign policy in the middle east, sponsored by Justice First!. Two new books by ADL director Foxman and political scientists Mearsheimer & Walt have just been published - what are their arguments? Info: JusticeFirst.info

While UNMIA won’t be attending this event in any official capacity, local supporters of Israel and the “Israel Lobby” might be interested in attending and rounding out a discussion that promises to be very lopsided, otherwise.

To join the discussion in a constructive way, it’s naturally necessary to know at least a little about the views of the two sides. Both books are available for sale, of course, and there is quite a bit about both books and the authors on various websites and magazines. As a starting point, we are including the authors’ statements about their own work.
