CAIR is holding a documentary screening of the film "Occupation 101," which is a powerful documentary film on the current and historical root causes of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Unlike any other film ever produced on the conflict -- "Occupation 101" presents a comprehensive analysis of the facts and hidden truths surrounding the never ending controversy and dispels many of its long-perceived myths and misconceptions. 
  
Our main goal for the event is to educate students and community members who are not familiar with the politics of the middle east on the issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and learn how necessary it is in this day and age to know about the politics of that region. 
  
The documentary screening will be on Thursday, February 28 at 7 p.m. in room 100 Greg Hall on the UIUC campus; the screening will be followed by a question and answer session with Prof. Farhad Malekafzali (Political Science, UIUC), David Green (Academic Professional, UIUC and local activist), and Prof. Issam Nassar (History, ISU).

Thanks!
