Co-director, Al-Shabaka, the Palestinian Policy Network; and Dr. Michele Dunne, Senior Associate, The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
From self-immolation to a region on fire, the past two months have brought forward transformational change in the region. What are the implications of these uprisings on other Arab states? How does this change relations between the Arab states and between them and the US? Do the ongoing uprisings change the way we think of the Palestine question? All of these questions and more will be addressed by a distinguished panel of guests.
