Please join Adalah – The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel, the Institute for Middle East Understanding, the Institute for Palestine Studies, and the Center for Constitutional Rights for a discussion on January 31, at 1:00 p.m. ET on the U.S. State Department’s plan to build their embassy on stolen Palestinian land in Jerusalem. The plan—a violation of international law—entails the embassy’s construction on private Palestinian property that has been illegally confiscated by Israel, the owners of which include numerous U.S. citizens. Panelists will outline what the plan entails, its illegality, and what you can do to stop the U.S. government from moving forward with the plan.

Speakers
Dr. Suhad Bishara, Legal Director and Director of the Land and Planning Rights Unit @Adalah — The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel
Dr. Rashid Khalidi, Edward Said Professor of Arab Studies at Columbia University
Josh Ruebner, Director of Government Relations at the Institute for Middle East Understanding
