Nadav Tamir on Iran, Gaza and the future of the Middle East
Baltimore Hebrew Congregation, 7401 Park Heights Ave, Baltimore, MD, USOn Tuesday, April 28 at 7pm, Baltimore Hebrew Congregation will host a timely conversation with Nadav Tamir, Executive Director of J Street Israel.
Nadav brings decades of experience in Israeli diplomacy and public service to this conversation. He previously served as Israeli Consul General to New England and as a senior adviser to President Shimon Peres. Nadav now leads J Street Israel’s work to advance a diplomacy-first, pro-peace vision for the region, grounded in security and democratic values. His background - including his service as a Major in the Armored Corps of the Israel Defense Forces - gives him a unique vantage point on the political choices Israel faces, the US-Israel relationship and the realities people are living through across the region.
Nadav will walk us through the region’s most pressing developments: How the war with Iran is reshaping regional dynamics, the status of the ceasefire in Gaza and the ongoing settler terror in the West Bank. He’ll also reflect on the changing meaning of “pro-Israel” in US politics and why continued diplomatic engagement and accountability are essential for a stable future for all in Israel-Palestine.
This event will also feature a reception afterwards, where you’ll have the chance to meet Nadav and connect with others who care about peace, security and the future of democracy.
