Special Movie Screening: The Case for Israel, Democracy's Outpost
April 25th, doors open at 6:30 PM

Join us for a special screening of The Case for Israel, Democracy's Outpost, followed by a discussion with the film's Producer Gloria Greenfield. In this 77-minute landmark documentary which premiered at the Haifa International Film Festival, Harvard Law School Professor Alan Dershowitz presents a vigorous case for Israel – for its basic right to exist, to protect its citizens from terrorism, and to defend its borders from hostile enemies. He engages leading political, judicial and academic leaders from Israel and North America in objective and intelligent discourse on the critical challenges facing Israel and the West.

The film is being shown in cooperation with NOW ISRAEL, Westchester Jewish Conference, Tzahal Shalom of Northern Westchester, and Stand With Us.
