Tuesday, February 14th at 7pm
Newcomb Hall Commonwealth Room
Come and hear Ram Sidi, a veteran member of a still-classified, elite Israeli counter terrorism unit speak on the motivations of Palestinian terrorist groups such as Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and al-Fatah. Ram Sidi's vast counter-terrorism experience includes 16 years of fighting terrorists as a member of the Israeli Defense Forces in which he participated in scores of operations against Lebanese Hezbollah. His expertise on the mindset of terrorism is unique due to his access to convicted, imprisoned terrorists under the control of the Israeli Corrections Services. Free pizza will be served!! This is a not-to-miss opportunity! Made possible by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.
