Norman G. Finkelstein, PhD Biography
- Title:
- Former Assistant Professor of Political Science at DePaul University
- Position:
- Pro to the question "Is a Two-State Solution (Israel and Palestine) an Acceptable Solution to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict?"
- Reasoning:
-
“We are now at a crossroads in the conflict. I truly believe it is possible—not certain, not even probable, but still possible—that we can achieve a reasonable settlement within the two-state framework. But achieving this goal will require a maximum of political clarity and a vastly reduced amount of sloganeering… I do not see why it’s so terrific if Israel becomes a full-fledged Apartheid state ‘from the river to the sea’.”
