Israeli Irishmen and women

GREEN NATIONALISM: Israeli Irishmen and women will next week host one of the leading experts on Irish nationalism at a lecture where he is expected to draw parallels between that movement and the Israeli experience. Tom Garvin, a professor of politics at University College Dublin, will be speaking at an event organized by the Israel Ireland Friendship League at Museum of the Jewish Diaspora in Tel Aviv on Tuesday at 7.30 P.M. "We've been trying to hold more events in association with institutions lately to expand our activity," said Malcolm Gafson, the League's chairman. He added that he hoped that the event - made possible by the support of The Embassy of Ireland and Cultural Division and the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs - could lay the groundwork for a future display on Irish Jewry at the heritage institution. The lecture will also be the Irish community's send-off for Ireland's ambassador, Michael Forbes, who will be leaving Israel this summer after completing a four-year stint.
