Name:   Rabee' Sahyoun
Title: Economic Development Policy Researcher
The Lebanese Center for Policy Studies (LCPS)

Position: Pro Right of Return to the question "What are the solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?"
Reasoning:

"If the people of Israel want to truly live in peace, with security, and with their Arab neighbors, they must realize that the wrongs that have been perpetrated on their behalf must be resolved. They must accept that they are living on stolen lands and stolen property. They must realize that to appease the Palestinians who have spent 53 years as refugees, they must facilitate their return to their native homeland."
