Palestine Peace Not Apartheid

Peace Not Apartheid

De: Jimmy Carter

Narrado por: Jimmy Carter

Following his #1 New York Times bestseller, Our Endangered Values, the former president, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, offers an assessment of what must be done to bring permanent peace to Israel with dignity and justice to Palestine.

President Carter, who was able to negotiate peace between Israel and Egypt, has remained deeply involved in Middle East affairs since leaving the White House. He has stayed in touch with the major players from all sides in the conflict and has made numerous trips to the Holy Land, most recently as an observer in the Palestinian elections of 2005 and 2006.

In this book, President Carter shares his intimate knowledge of the history of the Middle East and 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, the president writes. There will be no substantive and permanent peace for any peoples in this troubled region as long as Israel is violating key UN resolutions, official American policy, and 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. As were all previous administrations since the founding of Israel, US government leaders must be in the forefront of achieving this long-delayed goal of a just agreement that both sides can honor.

The best outlook on Palestine

We liked and welcomed the insight into the issues at hand on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and some possible solutions. Highly recommended reading.

Palestine

Terrific insight and analysis by President Carter. More than any other person alive, Carter understands the history and inside story of the conflict. Hopefully, our leaders are reading or listening to him.

Honest & Sincere

The most honest book about the Middle East in the last 10 years.
Courageous.
The Israel lobby / AIPAC will go nuts because someone has spoken the "truth" about the systematic, cruel & immoral oppression of Palestinians.
Openly discusses the disproportionate response to the desperation of suicide bombing.
Like America, Israel is armed with WMDs of every kind; nuclear, biological & chemical and yet claims fear of neighbors who only have resort to rhetoric and bluster.

Every American voter should read this book

I wanted to learn more about the Israel/Palestine conflict and I did. I will not deny that I am an admirer of Jimmy Carter. Whether you are or not will have no effect on your appreciation of the factual material, all verifiable. President Carter has been an integral part of nearly all peace negotiations between Israel and Palestine for more than 30 years. He truly is the foremost expert in the U.S. He sticks to the facts, and saves his opinions for the last chapter.
Read this book and find out what the rest of the world knows.
