The War of Images: the Growing Role of the Media in Israel's Recent Conflicts

Participants

Overview

As the media plays an increasingly pertinent role in directing the conduct and perception of conflict, Alon Ben David will comment on the media in recent Israeli engagements. Is Israel involved in a battle over consciousness, fought with cameras and sound bites? How will this shape the next war? Drawing on extensive experience, having covered the Middle East conflict for over 20 years, Alon Ben David will ask how the conflict is being reflected in the Israeli, Western and Arab media.

Attendance at this event is by invitation only.
