 Yet despite attempts to portray him otherwise, Khalidi is a soft-spoken moderate. His opposition to the war in Iraq stemmed from the view that it reenacted historical fallacies stemming from European imperialism, but welcomes American participation in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. He is often as sharply critical of Arab states and Palestinian politicians as he is supportive of Israel's right to exist.
