• So Close?
    Hi everyone I was riveted by the this article in yesterday's NY Times Magazine. It's a detailed account of how close PM Olmert and PA President Abbas had come to an agreement. Seems so far away right now. Or maybe not? I encourage you to take a look, and to let me now what you think!

On Shabbat morning, February 11th we will have the honor of being addressed by Mr. David Siegel the Consul General of Israel in Los Angeles.

Consul General Siegel is a dynamic and thought-provoking speaker who has taken Los Angeles by storm!  And as the son of a rabbi, he has a particular understanding for communities such as ours. Consul General Siegel will address us during davening, and afterwards will host a question and answer session.

Consul General Siegel will discuss: Israel - Challenges and Opportunities. He will focus on little known, but vitally important Israeli achievements in the fields of high tech, science, education and the arts.  He will also discuss the positive interaction between segments of the Israeli population that rarely make the headlines, but should.

DAVID SIEGEL assumed the post of Consul General of Israel in Los Angeles in August 2011, where he serves as the senior representative of the State of Israel to the Southwestern United States. Most recently, Mr. Siegel served as Chief of Staff to Israel's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs. In this role, he was involved in policy formulation and decision-making at the senior levels of Israel's foreign policy establishment. Mr. Siegel graduated from the University of Vermont with a B.A. in Political Science and earned a Master’s Degree in International Relations from the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy in Boston. He served as a Commander in the Israel Defense Forces. Consul General Siegel is married to Myra Clark-Siegel, and they have three young children.
