Robert talks to Patrick Clawson, Director for Research at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, and then with Ze'ev Schiff, a military analyst for the daily Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz, about a call by Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak for a "unilateral separation" of Israelis and Palestinians. They discuss the pros and cons of the proposal. Clawson says separating Israelis and Palestinians would bring stability to the region, while Schiff says separating the two peoples is practically impossible, and might not end the violence.
