Jewish Palestinian Dialogue without Palestinians
Here is an event sponsored by the US Holocaust Memorial Museum. Notice the absence of Palestinian participants. If Palestinians are not even present, dialoguing with them will be difficult to say the least.
In such dialogues is it only permissible to discuss the Holocaust?
Shouldn't an expert in Nakba/Holoexaleipsis studies and Zionist genocidalism be present?
Would it not have been reasonable to invite a scholar that could have discussed the killings and ethnic cleansing of Russian Germans often under the leadership of ethnic Ashkenazi communist officials during the Russian revolution and the consolidation of the Soviet Union?
Shouldn't some background information be provided on the murders of German non-Jews during the Bavarian communist coup that was led primarily by communist German Jews and Eastern European Ashkenazim in the aftermath of WW1?

Note that Pamela Steiner is the great-granddaughter of Ambassador Morgenthau, who tried to help Armenians during the genocide that took place during the waning days of the Ottoman Empire.
