Ali Abunimah is the co-founder of The Electronic Intifada and author of two excellent books: The Battle for Justice in Palestine, and One Country: A Bold-Proposal to End the Israeli-Palestinian Impasse. I have read them both.

Workable solutions can only arise from honest analysis of the real problems.
