The Map. The Compass. The Moment | The Middle East Two Years After October 7

The Domino Effect | Where Are We Headed: Stability or Instability?

Two years after October 7, the region is experiencing the domino effect of that day — across Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank, Jordan, Iraq, Iran, the Gulf States, and beyond.

We are living in a moment defined by confusion and confrontation. People aren’t looking for more narratives, noise, or opinions. They’re looking for clarity, context, and trusted education that helps them make sense of a complicated world.

Using ITME’s signature method:
– How did we get here?
– Where are we now?
– Where are we going

Each program concludes with a live Q&A, customized to reflect current developments in real time.

This isn’t just a talk, this is not advocacy or politics — it is authentic, apolitical education. It’s a real-time intelligence briefing designed to help audiences understand Israel through the broader lens of the Middle East. Avi guides audiences toward a deeper understanding of Israel and its neighbors — exploring the regional dynamics driving both instability and the potential for change. Avi doesn’t tell audiences what to think; he offers perspectives enabling the audience to engage in meaningful conversations about Israel and the Middle East with confidence and clarity.Through authentic, apolitical education, we help people move from confusion to clarity and from confrontation to connection — empowering them to engage with confidence, courage, and critical thinking.
