Stephen Zunes, Professor of politics and chair of Middle Eastern studies at the University of San Francisco
Smith Recital Hall – Silver Cultural Arts Center
In his talk, Stephen Zunes will discuss his belief that U.S. military and economic aid to Israel should be conditional upon Israel’s adherence to universally-recognized human rights and international legal principles.
He maintains that U.S. aid can and should be used to compel Israel to end its illegal colonization by withdrawing its occupation forces from Arab territories, and allow for the establishment of a viable Palestinian state in these territories in return for security guarantees.
Zunes is one of the leading academic critics of U.S. Middle East policy. He is the author of scores of articles on U.S. foreign policy, international terrorism, human rights, and related issues, and is a frequent guest on NPR, BBC, MSNBC, and other media outlets for analysis on breaking world events. His books include the highly acclaimed Tinderbox: U.S. Middle East Policy and the Roots of Terrorism.
