Book - Jimmy Carter's Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid

Paperback, 270 pages, published 2007. Excellent used condition, still like new. "President Carter, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, and a man who was able to negotiate peace between Israel and Egypt, remained deeply involved in Middle East affairs after leaving the White House. Here, he shares his intimate knowledge of the history of the Middle East, his personal experiences with the principal actors, and he addresses sensitive political issues many American officials avoid. Pulling no punches, Carter prescribes steps that must be taken for the two states to share the Holy Land without a system of apartheid or the constant fear of terrorism. The general parameters of a long-term, two-state agreement are well known, he writes. There will be no substantive and permanent peace for any peoples in this troubled region as long as Israel is violating key U.N. resolutions, violating official American policy, and violating the international "road map" for peace by occupying Arab lands and oppressing the Palestinians. Except for mutually agreeable negotiated modifications, Israel's official pre-1967 borders must be honored. Palestine Peace Not Apartheid is a challenging, provocative, and courageous book." 🇵🇸
