"According to Mr. Gilder, the Arab-Israeli conflict is shaped by the undeniable fact that Israel is a fully modern state, while its neighbors are not. America must recognize this stark division to navigate the minefields of Middle Eastern politics and advance its own interests, to which Israel's success is inexorably linked.
Mr. Gilder initiated his talk by pointing out the many contributions to science made by Israelis in the 20th and 21st centuries. This has been driven by the country's general shift from agriculture to the world of capitalism and ideas, even though all indicators rank the Israeli education system as inferior to the American one. Mr. Gilder proceeded to give the example of the Rambam Hospital in Haifa, which has pioneered research into multiple sclerosis, treatment of burns, and embryonic stem cells."
