If you had doubts that Kenneth Stein has brilliant ideas on the Middle East, this will discard them: "To achieve last peace, the Israelis and Palestinians must be willing to sit down and negotiate with each other, Stein said." I can imagine the immense learning that goes on in his classroom. Wow. I already feel more informed on the Arab-Israeli conflict than ever. And he deserves credit for originality: nobody--I mean, nobody--has ever come up with a similar idea.
