Eichmann is already under arrest in Israel and will shortly be placed on trial in Israel under the terms of the law for the trial of Nazis and their collaborators. In the cabinet meeting immediately preceding this announcement, Ben-Gurion’s ministers had expressed their astonishment and curiosity.

He had been playing for four years when he first listened to TClifford Brown, a trumpet king in the 1950s, and thought there was no hope for a boy from South Africa to blow a horn the way Brown could. Of course, more than half a century later, Masekela was the reason for more than a hundred people to crowd into the fourth floor of the Eubie Blake Center the evening of Oct. 21st, taking seats in overflow rows made up of metal chairs. He was joined on stage by good friend and legendary Charm City pianist, Larry Willis; the two of them, one trumpet, one piano, played a fifteen-tune set. As Masekela told showgoers early in the night, the music he and Willis were playing was what they had learned in the 1960s and 1970s. The duo first met at the Manhattan School of Music in the first half of the 1960s—where Willis had originally been a voice major singing opera and wearing powdered wigs that made him look like George Washington, so Masekela says.

  • Policy Paper Final
    Australia Israel Leadership Forum December 6-7, 2009 Melbourne Tuesday, 16 March 2010 Policy Paper INTRODUCTION This policy paper is made public today.It sets out proposals arising from the second Australia Israel Leadership Forum, which was held in Melbourne, Australia on December 6-7, 2009. It was written for the equal action of both Australian and Israeli Governments. The Forum was established by the Australia Israel Cultural Exchange in 2009 to create a high-level candid environment in which issues of mutual strategic relevance could be debated. It is precisely because of the longstanding warm bilateral relations between the two nations that the AILF can add value by elevating the relationship to an unprecedented level. The Israeli delegation was led by Deputy PM Silvan Shalom and included some 30 high-profile powerbrokers and politicians, academics and opinion makers, business leaders and media personalities. The 40 Australian leaders that comprised the Australian delegation were led by Deputy Prime Minister Julia Gillard. I hope that what follows will offer not just food for thought for both governments, but will be considered valuable enough to act upon – for the benefit of both these great countries. Albert Dadon AM Chairman, Australia Israel Leadership Forum Melbourne, January, 2010. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1) MILITARY LINKS…………………pages 3 2) FREE TRADE…………………...........pages 4-5 3) HEALTH……………………………...pages 6-7 4) CURRENT COLLABORATIONS……………………pages 8-9 page 2 1) MILITARY LINKS THE ISSUE The Australian Defence College – the umbrella organisation of the Centre for Defence and Strategic Studies, the Australian Command and Staff College and the Australian Defence Force Academy – does not invite Israeli military student leaders.
