Document Information

Type: Memoir draft / manuscript page (likely ehud barak)
File Size: 2.44 MB
Summary

This document appears to be a page from a memoir or manuscript (likely by Ehud Barak, based on the header) discussing high-level Israeli strategic discussions regarding the status of Jerusalem during peace negotiations (likely Camp David 2000). The text details the differing opinions of advisors Israel Hasson, Oded Eran, and Dan Meridor concerning Israeli sovereignty versus Palestinian autonomy in East Jerusalem. The page bears a House Oversight Committee stamp, suggesting it was collected as evidence, likely in relation to the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's connections to high-profile figures like Barak.
