Middle East expert Juan Cole and Israeli investigative journalist Uri Blau discuss Israel’s settlement policy and how tax-exempt dollars raised in the U.S. end up sustaining Jewish settlements in the West Bank.

By tracing, documenting and reporting on the fund-raising and spending of American non-profits and their partners in Israel, Blau’s recent investigation for Haaretz sheds new light on America’s complicated relationship with one of its closest allies.

About the Speakers
Uri Blau is an Israeli investigative journalist with more than 15 years experience exploring political corruption, national security and transparency issues — often through data-driven research projects in Israel and the US.

Juan Cole is the Richard P. Mitchell Collegiate Professor of History; Director, Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies at the University of Michigan. For more than three decades, he has sought to put the relationship of the West and the Muslim world in historical context.
