On February 18, 2010, Dr. Mitchell Bard of the American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise (AICE) came to our University to meet student leaders and give a lecture on the successes and failures of the Obama Administration's Middle East policy.
Dr. Bard first met with students, including the President of the University Democrats, the Chairwoman-elect of the College Republicans, representatives of Honor and the University Judiciary Committee, etc., with whom he spoke candidly about the top myths surrounding the Arab-Israeli conflict and what the real facts are.
Following the reception, Dr. Bard gave a lecture entitled "The Obama Mideast Policy: A Bridge to Peace or Nowhere," in which he argued that Obama's current policy has angered both the Israelis and the Arabs involved in the conflict. He also emphasized the role of United States, Israel, and the Palestinian Authority, arguing that others have no real influence over how peace is achieved.
