Former US President Jimmy Carter on how illegal Israeli occupation of Gaza/West Bank is like a prison. And this is over 12 months old!
Israel unilaterally withdrew its soldiers and settlers from Gaza in 2005 not because it wanted to create conditions for the emergence of a Palestinian state, but because it didn’t want to hurt any Jews when it eventually fired its missiles at school buildings and mosques.
— Response in the Atlantic to Jimmy Carter’s op-ed… Carter is bouncing all over the place, even apologising for his 2006 book. Is it coincidence that his grandson is running for elected office or maybe just the good-old standby argument…
