Eddy Lecture: “Gaza and America’s Role in the Middle East”"},"content":{"rendered":"

Israel’s war in Gaza following the October 7 attack by Hamas has produced a humanitarian catastrophe with no end in sight, with conflict escalating into Lebanon and reverberating across the broader Middle East. Is it too late for a two state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Can a broader regional war still be averted? How did U.S. policies in the Middle East fail to prevent these disasters, and what can the new administration do to help create a more stable, peaceful and just region?\u00a0The 35th Annual Eddy Lecture features Marc Lynch, Ph.D. discussing “Gaza and America’s Role in the Middle East” on November 13, 2024 at 7 pm in the Benes Rooms in Hamilton-Williams Campus Center.\u00a0Dr. Marc Lynch, is an expert in Middle Eastern politics and international relations.
