At the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, American Jewish Committee (AJC) convened a panel discussion with experts who discussed Israel’s right to self-defense and security, governance in Gaza, the Iranian regime and its network of terror, the Jewish state’s relationship with Arab countries in the Gulf, and much more.

AJC is a nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. AJC does not endorse or oppose political parties or candidates.

More information about AJC programming on the sidelines of the Democratic National Convention will be coming later this summer.

 
Moderated by AJC’s Chief Policy Officer, Jason Isaacson, who is also the head of AJC’s recently launched Center for a New Middle East, the panel included:

  • Dr. Ken Weinstein, former longtime CEO of the Hudson Institute and the Walter P. Stern Distinguished Fellow at Hudson
  • Kirsten Fontenrose, the President of Red Six Solutions and Senior Director of Gulf Affairs in the National Security Council under President Trump
  • Rich Goldberg, Senior Adviser at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and Director of Countering Iranian Weapons of Mass Destruction for the National Security Council under President Trump
