The Unspoken Alliance: Israel's Secret Relationship with Apartheid South Africa
Tuesday, June 8th, 7:30 pm

Sasha Polakow-Suransky tells the full story of how Israel's booming arms industry and South Africa's isolation led to a hidden military alliance that grew deeper after the Likud Party came to power in 1977 and continued even after Isreal passed sanctions against South Africa in the late 1980's. Join us for a fascinating evening.
