Hi Ido,

 

Thanks for your email.

I am connecting you with Marvin Feuer, AIPAC’s Director of Policy and Government Affairs, whom the INDC class met with in Washington last year.

 

Marvin, please see Ido’s request below regarding the INDC class meeting with you and the team again this coming June.

 

Best,

Penny

Subject: INDC visit to the US

 

Good evening,

My name is MAJ Ido Soceanu and I'm the head of the International Fellowship and Cooperation Desk at the Israel National Defense College (INDC). Along with COL Alon Madanes (whom you spoke with) and Ambassador Raphael Schutz we are heading the INDC tour to the United states on June this year.

the INDC serves as the top training program for senior officials in the State of Israel. The course participants are comprised of high ranking officials from the public and defense sectors of Israel, including senior military officials from the IDF as well as International officers. The course itself focuses on national defense and stratigic studies and takes up one year.

As part of the course the students fly to the US in order to learn about the various concepts of national defense as seen through American eyes (and in relations to Israel as well). Part of this visit and learning experience is the Jewish diaspora, we see it as a crucial part of the Israeli fabric and concept of national defense to understand the American Jewish community.

In previous years the INDC has met with senior members of AIPAC during their tour of DC and we would like to request to do it once more. We wish to have the students learn about the organization and how it works with congress, the Jewish commuity and the state of Israel in order to advance its goals.

We were hoping to meet on the 19th of June in the morning.

Please let me know if there is anything that I can do to assist,

V/R
