A panel discussion on the views of Palestinian citizens of Israel held on 2 December 2009. Dr. Shibley Telhami, Anwar Sadat Chair for Peace and Development at the University of Maryland, and Dr. Asad Ghanem, Professor of Political Science at the University of Haifa, presented recently conducted public opinion data, commentary and analysis.
Treated as second-class citizens in Israel and left out of Palestinian national representative structures, this population continues to grow in number and political dynamism. What do the Palestinian citizens of Israel think about a negotiated solution to the conflict, the Right of Return, and their future status? How can/should this constituency participate in the decision making processes that will ultimately provide an answer to their national question? The speakers will explore these questions with a presentation of recently conducted public opinion data, commentary and analysis.
