It’s an eventful week here for those of us following the never ending saga known as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
The spotlight is now, of course, on the United Nations General Assembly, where the Palestinians will make their case for statehood and the Americans and Israelis will tell us why this is a bad idea.
Our Washington correspondent, Nathan Guttman, is there and will be filing news reports at least twice a day, filling us in on what is transpiring. Log on regularly to the Forward home page for the latest.
This story "Our Man at the U.N." was written by Gal Beckerman.
