Rebeccah L. Heinrichs

Senior Fellow and Director, Keystone Defense Initiative

In his new book Israel and Civilization: The Fate of the Jewish Nation and the Destiny of the West, Josh Hammer argues that the United States’ support for Israel is rooted in America’s national interest. He further argues that the US-Israel alliance and ecumenical support across societies for the Jewish nation is the front line in the battle against Islamist terrorism and secularist nihilism, both of which threaten the survival of the West.

Join Keystone Defense Initiative Director Rebeccah Heinrichs for a conversation with Hammer about the book and the future of US-Israel relations.
