From Daniel Pearl to Steven Sotloff: Jews and Political Kidnapping

The Algemeiner Editor’s Club and the American Sephardi Federation cordially invite you to join us for a discussion and exclusive book signing with Jere Van Dyk, former CBS journalist and captive of the Taliban. The conversation — which will be moderated by Algemeiner Editor-in-Chief Dovid Efune — is titled From Daniel Pearl to Steven Sotloff: Jews and Political Kidnapping.

Van Dyk is one of the most celebrated journalists covering the Middle East, and his new book THE TRADE: My Journey Into the Labyrinth of Political Kidnapping adds to his list of already impressive credentials. His unheralded knowledge positions him as an authority to discuss breaking news in relation to Middle Eastern geopolitics as well as his own experience being held hostage by jihadists and the ever-evolving business of political kidnapping.

The discussion will be followed by a Q & A session and a book signing. VIP entry to the event includes access to an exclusive reception preceding the talk and a signed copy of the book.
