Yesterday we visited a Think Tank for Democracy in Israel and had the chance to engage in roundtable debate with several scholars on the issues of terrorism and democracy. We dealt with questions like administrative detention, trying terrorists in criminal court, personal liberty vs. security concerns, the (currently nonexisting) Israeli Constitution, the flotilla, and performing a prisoner swap for Gilad Shalit. It was a great session.
Afterwards, we heard from the leader of Peace Now's Settlement Watch, and then visited the VanLeer Institute and walked by the President's and Prime Minister's Houses.
