- Time to Stop Pawning the Palestinians -
Claudia Schwartz, Legatum Institute Research Assistant, Standpoint Magazine
There was a time when it was accurate to use the term ‘Arab-Israeli conflict' to describe the dispute between the Jewish state, the Palestinians, and much of the Arab world. Yet lately, given that the upheaval regarding this troublesome spot is increasingly coming from the non-Arab Muslim world, the term has become a misnomer. From Turkey, to Iran, to Malyasia, non-Arab actors are jumping on the anti-Israel bandwagon in order to bolster domestic support and gain regional and global standing. This effectively treats the Palestinians as pawns, and risks harmful consequences for the people these nations claim to support. It is time for the Arab world to reclaim its influence and advance its own interests by working towards finally resolving this conflict.

Before Rev. Johnson Cook can be sworn in, the world's greatest deliberative body will first have its say. In the Senate confirmation process, it would be prudent for members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to ask some specific questions.
