President-elect Donald Trump has made it clear he plans to fully back Israel in its war against Iran and its proxies. That could make the Liberal government’s discord with Jerusalem increasingly uncomfortable for a U.S. ally. How will it all play out?

Join National Post for a live conversation with international security expert Casey Babb, senior fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute. Hosted by Ottawa bureau chief Stuart Thomson, this virtual, subscriber-only event is a chance to connect directly with one of Canada’s top thinkers on Middle East foreign policy. The event starts at 12:30 p.m. ET.
