On Wednesday, September 10, Dr. Asher Susser lectured to a packed room at the UA Hillel Foundation. Together with the Arizona Center for Judaic Studies, UA Hillel hosted Dr. Susser’s lecture entitled “Israel, Hamas, and the Palestinians: Conflict Resolution or Conflict Management?” In his lecture, Dr. Susser urged for a rational management of conflict, and said that the best way to achieve non-belligerency is for Israel to end occupation in Palestine. The event was attended by students, faculty, community members, and the department heads for both Judaic Studies and Middle Eastern & North African Studies.
