Your Call 112807 What Would Give the Palestinians Leverage?

What would give Palestinians leverage in peace talks? On the next Your Call we talk about what components are needed for a peace process to feel optimistic about. Right now Palestinians face a nuclear power from behind blockaded borders, split between two parties engaged in low grade civil war. Mahmoud Abbas is there as president of Palestine, but who does he represent? Is American support necessary for Palestinian success, or could another coalition be cobbled together? What would a peace process you had faith in need? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Dr. Mustafa Barghouthi
Member of the Palestinian Legislative Council and former Minister of Communication for the Palestinian Authority. 
 
Amjad Shawa,
Palestinian NGO Network coordinator for Gaza
 
Lamia Matta
Middle East International Advocacy Director at the International Crisis Group.
