The Obama Administration should actively engage Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, the Arab League, the United Nations Security Council and Israel toward a definitive two-state solution for the people of Palestine.
A two-state solution would begin to bridge a deep divide between two sides whose history of conflict is too lengthy to recount.
While the President has publicly stated his goal to see a two-state solution to the ongoing dispute, recent comments before the United Nations seem to imply that the administration is not taking a leading role in the peace process.
The United States should join our allies like India and France in support of Abbas' UN resolution seeking recognition of a Palestinian state.
