Paul Adams was the BBC's Middle East Correspondent based in Jerusalem from 1989 to 1992 and, again, in 1997 to 2001. Events he covered included the Gulf War, Israel's withdrawal from southern Lebanon, the Pope's visit to Israel and the dawning of the year 2000 in Bethlehem. Before that, he was a BBC reporter based in Belgrade (1993 to 1995) which was followed by two years (1995 to 1997) working as a reporter for international news channel, BBC World. He was appointed as the BBC's Defence Correspondent in May 2001 and in his first year covered stories such as British troop deployments in Macedonia and Afghanistan.

From a Frontline Club program announcement where Adams will be the moderator:
