    Presidential historian and JPC Fellow Tevi Troy recently wrote, “Israel has been a battleground for staff in presidential administrations, especially those run by Democrats… Looking back at the history dating to its founding in 1948, one can plausibly argue that Israel has been better off with Democratic fractiousness than with harmony.” He will tell us why.

    Troy is also the author of Fight House: Rivalries in the White House from Truman to Trump.
