Name: Robert Malley
Title: Middle East and North Africa Program Director
International Crisis Group

Position: Pro Two State Solution to the question "What are the solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?"
Reasoning:

"If done right, the introduction of an international presence can benefit both sides. It can help increase security for Israelis and Palestinians, rebuild Palestinian self-government and provide Israel with assurances regarding Palestinian performance. Most important, it may begin to set in motion the process that should lead to the emergence of a viable state of Palestine living side by side with Israel."
