Israel - Day Two

Still in Jerusalem, visited The Israel Center for Excellence through Education, met with Danny Tierza, the "architect" of Israel's security fence, and met with folks from Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a series of official briefings on Iran, the neighboring Arab states, and U.S.-Israel relations.

We then visited the newly renovated Yad Vashem, which is the Jewish National Memorial to the victims of the Holocaust, walked into Jerusalem's Old City, visited the Jewish Quarter and Western Wall, and finished the day with a tour of the Old City's Armenian Quarter.
