OLLI Talks: Middle East Update (DRAKE HALL)

An election is scheduled in Israel for no later than October 26, 2026. The results of that election will be greatly influenced by conditions in the region at that time, and those results will have a major impact on prospects for peace in the long-running Israeli Palestinian conflict. The class will examine the election results, factors that influenced voters, and the possible impact of the results on the conflict. 

Rabbi Hillel Katzir has been offering classes at OLLI-CSU for over ten years on Judaism, the Bible, religion, and the Middle East. His passion is bringing people together across perceived lines of separation, including supporting the work of Israelis and Palestinians who have suffered from the conflict and yet work together for peace.
