Audio Archive: Arab World Transitions

Short Description: 

The popular uprisings that began sweeping through the Arab world earlier this year will have significant implications for peacemaking between Arab countries and Israel. This panel explored the challenges and opportunities the parties are now faced with, as well as whether the shifting regional climate will make peace agreements between Israel and its Arab neighbors more or less likely.
