About the debate
One year after President Obama s Cairo speech, with no sign of an Israel-Palestine peace deal, a deteriorating security situation in Afghanistan, and the ongoing nuclear standoff with Iran, is the ‘new beginning’ initiative stalled?
How significant is the role of the Arab-Israeli conflict in widening the gap between communities in the US, Europe and the ‘Muslim world’? Is progress on the Middle East front a sine qua non for the improvement of Muslim-West relations?
