The Arab-Israeli Conflict

In a lunchtime forum jointly sponsored by The New America Foundation’s American Strategy Program and The Century Foundation’s Prospects for Peace Initiative, Robert Malley, Middle East and North Africa Program Director at the International Crisis Group, presented and discussed the report, The Arab-Israeli Conflict: To Reach a Lasting Peace.

This new International Crisis Group report looks at the lessons from the conflict this summer, the last six years of regression, and the United States’ political absence from the process. It makes a series of practical and immediate policy recommendations to all the leading actors — the Quartet, Israel, the Palestinians (Fatah and Hamas), Lebanon, Syria and the Arab States.

Daniel Levy, Senior Fellow & Director of the Middle East Policy Initiative, moderated this event.
