DESCRIPTION:The Middle East Two Years After October 7\nAvi Melamed leads a briefing to unravel the complexities of the Middle East with clear\, in-depth\, contextualized\, and holistic analysis. \nTwo years after October 7\, the region is still feeling the domino effect of that day — across Gaza\, Lebanon\, Syria\, the West Bank\, Jordan\, Iraq\, Iran\, the Gulf States\, and beyond. In The Map. The Compass. The Moment.\, Avi connects the dots between today’s headlines and the deeper forces shaping them – helping audiences see not just what’s happening\, but where it’s leading. \nAvi explores: \n\nHow did we get here?\nWhere are we now?\nWhere are we going?\n\nAvi guides audiences toward a deeper understanding of Israel and its neighbors — exploring the regional dynamics driving both instability and the potential for change. Avi Melamed is a former Israeli intelligence official\, Senior Arab Affairs Advisor\, author\, and trusted educator\, designed to help audiences understand Israel through the broader lens of the Middle East. This program concludes with a live Q&A. \n  \nFunding is in part provided by the JCC Association of North America and the Birmingham Jewish Federation and Foundation.
