SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 11 continued BOOKSTORE HOURS: 9:00 A.M.–9:30 P.M. CLOSING NIGHT EVENT! Daniel Gordis, The Promise of Israel: Why Its Seemingly Greatest Weakness Is Actually Its Greatest Strength Sunday, November 11 • 7:30 P.M. Connect with Dr. Daniel Gordis, “one of Israel's most thoughtful observers” (Alan Dershowitz) and Senior Vice President and Koret Distinguished Fellow at the Shalem Center in Jerusalem, when he shares excerpts from The Promise of Israel. Critics of Israel would say that no country devoted to a single faith and culture can stay prosperous. Dr. Gordis says they’re wrong, and cites endless examples of freedom and fortune found in Israel that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. He also offers this radical thought to the Palestinians: perhaps their own best interests would be served by emulating Israel’s example rather than trying to end its existence. Admission: $16/JCC Member; $19/Non-Member Literary Circle Partner with the Author: The San Diego Wexner Alumni Daniel Gordis
