Pro Roadmap
to the question "What are the solutions to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?"
Reasoning:
"The Palestinians have nothing left but the power that the justice of their cause offers them, as well as the eventual support of international public opinion, especially in the US. However, this would require that they carry out their obligations under the road map, which represents international legitimacy and is therefore liable to invigorate the Quartet. If the latter does not respond by applying the necessary pressure on Israel, the Palestinians would have no choice but to resort to a remaining option: adoption of a one-state solution in the conflict, for which the Palestinian leadership must start preparing now."
