Barack Obama, the US president, is attempting to seal an Arab-Israeli peace deal that has eluded the region for more than six decades.

Ahead of an initiative expected to be announced in September, Al Jazeera is examining the prospects for peace in a week-long series from Israel, the West Bank, Gaza and Jordan.

Al Jazeera's Sami Zeidan questioned Dr Abdullah Abdullah, chairman of the political committee of the Palestinian Legislative Council, on the issue of Israeli settlements.
