How will the US election results affect Israeli policy regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?

What US foreign policy shift in the Middle East should we expect if we see a change in the governing administration?
What would a Biden or a Trump presidency mean for further Arab state normalization with Israel or the Iranian nuclear threat?

The Harry S. Truman Research Institute for the Advancement of Peace at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem addresses these issues and more in a panel discussion with: 

  • Peter Beinart, Journalist and Professor of Journalism at The City University of New York

  • Lahav Harkov, Diplomatic Correspondent & Senior Contributing Editor at The Jerusalem Post

  • MK Yousef Jabareen, PhD, The Joint List

  • Dr. Ronny Regev, Department of History, Hebrew University
