So come to our end-of-the-semester Eat For Israel on Wednesday, December 12 at 7:00 PM in Kraft 5th floor.

There will be free Israeli food and music so please take a break from finals and stop in.

2. LionPAC has a number of spots at tomorrow's Pluralistic shabbat meal. If you are interested in going to the free dinner please respond to this email with your name and uni so I can put you on the list. It's at 7:00 so please let me know if you can attend.

3. Brief Political update by Jacob Beckman

Iran's Nuclear Program?

A new report from US intelligence agencies suggests that Iran ended its nuclear program in 2003. Ahmadinejad is hailing this as a victory, while Israel remains unconvinced. Bush has gone on the defensive, still declaring that Iran is a threat.

Annapolis Peace Talks

Olmert and Abbas have agreed to negotiate a peace treaty that would end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The deadline for this treaty is the end of 2008.

Palestinian Prisoners Freed

On Monday, Israel freed 429 Palestinian prisoners as a gesture of good will intended to help the Annapolis peace talks.
