In order to make progress on these issues someone has to challenge the status quo. Thanks for having the courage to work toward peace despite the fact that the US and Israel aren't ready to consider a peaceful solution at this time. Perhaps someday the arms makers will somehow loose their stranglehold on our political processes and our governments will be open to ending the perpetual conflict for the betterment of all mankind.

Hats off to you President Carter!

For Mr. Carter to be successful in his realizing his dream; he should go back 'in memory when he was a president' - To the good old days when he forced Andrew Young 'the US representative at the UN' for being present at a gathering in which there was Mr. Tarazi 'the PLO observer at the UN' - Though they discussed nothing! Mr. Young's being there - Was considered at the time a great sin! On top of that Mr. Carter himself 'apologized' or forced Mr. Young to apologize! If Mr. Carter is really intelligent 'as they say' - He ought to diagnose the types of pressures that had been forced upon him to act as he did! And only after diagnosing them, he should recommend the appropriate treatment and prevention in order not to happen again! Looking at the past, it looks as if all US presidents 'before and after Carter' they all were under some type of a hidden tremendous pressure preventing them from acting as 'America's interest first' ; except for president Dwight David Eisenhower; who was courageous enough October 31st, 1956 to suspend aid to Israel; in protest at Israel's invasion of Egypt in the Suez crisis! After that incident of his 'during his third term in office' no other US President was ever allowed 'by congress' to run for a third time! Enough is/was enough! LOL

A decent man Ex president JC is the only one who dared to do the right thing and try to help the oppressed while the presidential hopefuls are ass licking their Zionist master.
Sue Myric the US senator demanded the removal of JC passport and destroy his charity organization.
A shameless ugly woman who would defend the bulldozing of Rachel Corrie.
