Testimonials

“It is not often that one has the opportunity of hearing not only a first-hand account
of current matters affecting Israel, but as the talk wore on, it was obvious that Elon, through his very personal and challenging experiences and his professional expertise, “gave it” to his audience in a very down to earth, no holds barred manner, which added to the interest and understanding of this long lasting and long-suffering situation.” Jeffrey Pinnick OBE

“It is highly interesting to hear a lecture on this subject from someone who was born and
raised in this volatile region, served in the Army and participated in the bloody conflict for 25 years. Someone who can tell stories and facts as they actually happened, and not as we were told by the media.” Prof Gill Atkins

“You gave us a remarkable perspective today, not only from a historical point of view, but as a former IDF fighter in countless combat zones, and as a journalist. Your time and explanation, given with facts and emotion, were much appreciated.” Abraham Group, JW3, London
