Cook Auditorium, Murdough Center
Intended Audience(s): Public

While prime minister of Israel from 2006-2009, Ehud Olmert came perhaps closer than any Israeli leader to forging peace with the Palestinians and also led his country through armed confrontations with Hamas and Hezbollah.  A critic of the Netanyahu  government’s posture toward Iran, he is a keen observer of the Arab world and will discuss Israel's strategic situation and its prospects for peace with its neighbors amid the turmoil of the Arab Spring.
