Dr. Jonathan Spyer - When The Dust Settles in Damascus: New Realities of The Middle East - Lunch Lecture on January 31s, 2014

The Speakers Action Group is proud to present: Dr. Jonathan Spyer who will address our concerns about events transpiring in the Middle East. Having travelled within Syria since the conflict began, Jonathan has become the go-to expert for journalists and world leaders regarding the situation in Syria and the spill-over effect on surrounding countries: Lebanon, Iraq, Israel, and Iran.

As well, with President Obama's recent peace efforts and John Kerry's continuous forays to the Middle East which heighten the threats to Israel's security, Jonathan Spyer will help provide some clarity on this complex situation.
