Keynote Address by Dr. James Zogby
 The Stakes Have Never Been Higher: The 2008
Elections and US Middle East Policy

Live Music By  Arabian Nightingales with Nader Hawa *

*
Key Note Address: *America's Middle East policy is being scrutinized 
heavily during this election season; getting it right has never been 
more important.  The risks in the region are exceedingly high, the 
challenges as great as ever, and the stakes are reaching new heights. 
Many questions abound: Do we "stay the course" in Iraq, for example, or 
do we change direction and find a different way forward?  If the latter 
option is to be pursued it will only come about because an informed 
public demands it of U.S. leadership. In assessing the way forward in 
the Middle East, we need to explore the responsibility of the American 
public in helping shape U.S. policy in the Middle East.

*Dr. James Zogby:* For the past three decades, Dr. Zogby has been 
involved in a full range of Arab American issues. A co-founder and 
chairman of the Palestine Human Rights Campaign in the later 1970s, he 
later co-founded and served as the Executive Director of the American 
Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. In 1982, he co-founded Save Lebanon, 
Inc., a private non-profit, humanitarian and non-sectarian relief 
organization which funds health care for Palestinian and Lebanese 
victims of war, and other social welfare projects in Lebanon. in 1985, 
Zogby founded the Arab American Institute (AAI), a Washington DC-based 
organization which serves as the political and policy research arm of 
the Arab American community, where Zogby currently serves as President.
