Thank God for people like Jimmy Carter. If the Bible is correct in saying "Blessed are the peace makers", then his soul will dance in heaven. He agreed to talk to people who were duly and fairly elected as the representatives of the Palestinian people. Both he and I agree that what the Israeli government have done to the Palestinians cannot be looked upon favorably by any rational person. And if you are one of those few, that think it is, then kindly just switch the roles of the two parties. Almost the entire Palestinian population depends on Israel for their mere (or should I say meager) existence (water, medicine, commerce, you name it). If that isn't as close to slavery as it gets, I don't know what is. Former US President Carter is constantly trying to bring people together and I can do nothing but applaud him for it. If there isn't such a thing as the Jimmy Carter Humanitarian award - there certainly should be. I know we have the Nobel Peace Prize, but he has even exceeded that.
Kudos
