DESCRIPTION:Respected journalist, Alison Weir, will present factual material little 
 known in the USA regarding what is actually going on in Israel/Palestine.  
 Ms Weir has studied the issues and actions of both sides and has traveled 
 widely in the region, recently returning from a three-month trip throughout 
 the West Bank.   Here is what others say of her presentations:\n\n"Ms. Weir 
 presents a powerful, well documented view of the Middle East today. She is 
 intelligent, careful, and critical. American policy makers would benefit 
 greatly from hearing her first-hand observations and attempting to answer 
 the questions she poses. This is an intellectual, thought-provoking, and 
 worthwhile presentation."\n-Thomas Campbell, Former US Senator (R-CA), Dean 
 of Haas School of Business, University of California\n\n"When the speech 
 ended, Ms. Weir was met with thunderous applause, and across the room there 
 was a widespread sense of satisfaction that someone was saying what needed 
 to be said."   \n-New York Times\n\nAlison Weir speaks widely throughout 
 the country, including two briefings on Capitol Hill, presentations at the 
 Center for Policy Analysis on Palestine (one of which was broadcast 
 nationally on C-Span) and at such universities and colleges as Harvard Law 
 School, Columbia, Stanford, Berkeley, the Fletcher School of Law and 
 Diplomacy, Vassar, the Naval Postgraduate Institute, and others.  Her 
 essays and articles have appeared in a number of books and magazines; among 
 them the Encyclopedia on Israel-Palestine, (upcoming) The Washington Report 
 on Middle East Affairs, San Francisco Bay View newspaper, CounterPunch, and 
 The Link.\n\nMs Weir is executive Director of, If Americans Knew, and has 
 completed seven in-depth statistical studies of US media coverage of 
 Israel-Palestine, releasing reports on the New York Times, the Associated 
 Press, the major primetime news broadcasts, and various other news media, 
 research that is increasingly cited by analysts on Israel-Palestine.\n
