a new age of violent conflict. A panel led by Santa Barbara Independent columnist Barney Brantingham
as moderator will include Prof. Jack Talbott on the chain of events that led to the war, Prof. John Lee on
the thinking of the war planners, Prof. Mary Furner on the effects of the war in the U.S., and Prof. Steven
Humphreys on the changed map of the Middle East.
