Husam Mohamad, Professor of Political Science at the University of Central Oklahoma at Edmond
Event Status: 
As Scheduled
Date: 
Thu, 02/16/2012 - 15:30 to 16:30

This lecture critically examines the US approach to solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. It highlights the consistency between the Bush and Obama Administration’s handling of the peace process. The fight against Islamists, the rhetoric on democracy promotion and the call for the creation of a Palestinian state alongside Israel represent the essential goals of Bush’s policy in the post-September 11th era. These same goals have also shaped the Obama Administration’s perspective on the Middle East.
