Matan,

 

Thank you for the note.  I am in the United States on the 10th of February but I am in Telaviv on the 6th of February and  am available anytime after 1330 if that works for you and MG Itai.  I would really enjoy meeting with the  students.

 

Please  reach out to Major Dave Cochrane if the 6th works for you  and your team.

 

Sincerely

 

Mark Schwartz

Sir,

 

My Name is LTC Matan Or and I am the Executive Officer of the Israel National Defence College. I work for MG Itai Veruv, The Commandant of the Israeli Military Colleges. MG Veruv met you last week at the reception for the Prince of Wales. MG Veruv suggested inviting you for a brief at our College. In the following tow weeks we are having a political simulation, the scenario for this simulation is the Israeli – Palestinian ongoing conflict, and the United States peace plan, which was brought to public attention this week. If you are available, we would kindly ask to coordinate your brief for Monday February 10, at 10:00 AM. We will be happy, if you can, to enrich us in this conversation, from your experience of the realities "on the ground" and the challenges facing both parties from your unique point of view.
 
If possible, I would gladly continue coordination with your staff. 
 
With great respect, 
 
LTC Matan Or
Executive Officer
