CHILDREN OF JEWISH HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS TO HOST BOOTS ON THE GROUND: IDF ELITE COMMANDOS

CHILDREN OF JEWISH HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS
Major Guy Meadan and Ariel Siegelman are elite commandos in the reserve Special Forces of the Israel Defense Forces Paratrooper Brigade. They specialize in counter terror operations. Among their many heroic actions as Israeli soldiers, they were in the front lines of Israel's Operation Cast Lead in Gaza in December of 2008 and January of 2009

On Monday, July 26, at 7 p.m. at the Luxe Hotel Sunset in Los Angeles, the Children of Jewish Holocaust Survivors of Los Angeles will host the two in a discussion dubbed Boots on the Ground: With Israeli Defense Force Elite Commandos.

They will be describing in detail their boots on the ground experiences fighting Hamas terrorists in Gaza and elsewhere. They will respond to the accusations of the Goldstone Report as soldiers who actually were present during Operation Cast Lead.

Siegelman and Meadan will discuss the potential effect the Goldstone Report will have on future military operations. They will also discuss the next wave of terrorism that Israel is anticipating and how the Israeli military expects to respond to it and how this is relevant to world security and the Jewish community at large.

Sponsors say this promises to be a gripping discussion of what it is like to be an Israeli commando who has the responsibility of defending the Jewish nation against terrorists. Siegelman, an Israeli specialist in counterterrorism, offers the best explanation for what Israel was trying to do in the Gaza attack.
