So far, negotiators have failed to reach a ceasefire in Gaza. What could a broader war settlement look like? CNN’s Fareed Rafiq Zakaria talks with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and former Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister and PLO representative to the UN Nasser al-Kidwa, who have released a rare joint proposal: a framework for a prospective two-state solution. Ehud Olmert, who served as the 12th prime minister of Israel from 2006 to 2009 and Nasser Al Qudwa, represented the Palestinian Liberation Organization at the United Nations from 1991 to 2005 and the Foreign Minister of the Palestinian Authority (2005-2006) share with their proposal for a sustainable Peace in the Middle-East, based on the treaty that was originally devised by Gershon Baskin and Samer Sinjalawi.

Gershon Baskin senses that Israel’s prime minister is using antisemitism to cover up domestic scandals and exploiting the war for his own self-interest. He also criticises the Palestinian side, which must prepare the ground for elections postponed for far too long. Qatar's step back should be used to restart negotiations.
