In response to suicide bombings and terrorist attacks, Israel decided to construct a security fence. This “barrier” has raised many questions regarding its stated purpose.

Please join us to discuss, Securing Israel’s Borders: Can Anyone Sit on The Fence? Our keynote speaker will be Rabbi David Saperstein, Director of the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism.

Described in a recent profile in the Washington Post as the “quintessential religious lobbyist on Capitol Hill,” Rabbi Saperstein represents the national Reform Jewish Movement to Congress and the administration. A prolific writer and speaker, he has appeared on a number of television news and talk shows including Nightline, Oprah, Lehrer News Hour and ABC’s Sunday Morning. His articles have appeared in the Washington Post and the New York Times.

I hope that you can join us for this informative and exciting program. Please call LoReal Russell at 410-542-4850 or email lrussell@baltjc.org with your attendance and lunch plans ($8.00 per person).

This program is being held in conjunction with the Baltimore Chapter
of the American Jewish Committee.
