Getting to Know Dem
"It's alarming how little we in Israel know about the United States and about how important it is to Israel's very existence. The Getting to Know Dem conversation really helps in raising awareness to that."

The Democratic party is not just the party currently in power in Washington - it is the party of the majority of Americans, the majority of young Americans, and the majority of Jewish Americans. Yet, how much do we in Israel know about the party that fights for liberal values, the values Israel needs to survive as a Jewish-democratic state?
​
In this talk, we'll speak about the ideology of the Democratic party; the liberal foreign policy during President Biden's administration; the correlating and conflicting interests and values of the U.S. and Israel; and how can and should the U.S.-Israel relations look like in the coming decades.
