Matthew
Levitt will discuss his book Hezbollah:
The Global Footprint of Lebanon’s Party of God at the Leventhal-Sidman Jewish Community Center (333 Nahanton
Street) in Newton on Thursday, November 21 at 7:30pm. His book is the first thorough examination of
Hezbollah’s covert activities beyond Lebanon’s borders. Full of previously unreported material, it
provides a much needed assessment of the threat posed by the group today.
Levitt is Director
of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy’s Stein Program on
Counterterrorism and Intelligence. Moderating the discussion will be Rob
Leikind, Director of the American Jewish Committee in Boston.
Open to the entire community. The program is part of
the Ryna Greenbaum JCC Boston Jewish Literary Series. Cost is $8. Purchase
