Israel is often portrayed as a dark and hostile place - militaristic, aggressive and war-torn.

More on Project Interchange:

A non-political and non-profit organization, Project Interchange, an institute of the American Jewish Committee, brings American and international policy makers and opinion leaders to Israel to learn firsthand about Israeli society, the quest for Middle East peace and the U.S.-Israel relationship during an intensive, one-week seminar experience.

An important cornerstone of Project Interchange seminars is the presentation of differing points of view on controversial issues in Israeli politics and society, the quest for Middle East peace, and current regional issues. Project Interchange seminars include orientation and alumni sessions and follow-up. Project Interchange has brought over 4,000 influential American and international leaders to Israel since its inception in 1982.
