Although disparities among them are often emphasized, the 1974
Israeli - Syrian withdrawal agreement, the 1978 Camp David Accords, the Reagan statement of 1982, the 1993 Oslo Agreement, the
treaty between Israel and Jordan in 1994, the Arab
peace proposal of 2002, the 2003 Geneva Initiative, and the International Quartet's Roadmap all contain key common elements that can be consolidated if pursued in good faith.
Roger Fisher, who helped negotiate the
Israeli - Egyptian
Peace treaty and the release of the American hostages from Iran, taught me that all successful negotiations are interest based.
