In response to a question, Carter apologized for a sentence in his book that he acknowledged seemed to justify terrorism by saying that suicide bombings should end when Israel accepts the goals of the road map to peace with Palestinians.

"That sentence was worded in a completely improper and stupid way," Carter said. "I've written my publishers to change that sentence immediately in future editions of the book. I apologize to you personally and to everyone here."

If that's the case, then why did he appear on al-Jazeera TV on January 14, 2007 and say the exact same thing?! Are his publishers going to change the audio for "future editions" of the interview on al-Jazeera!? Here's the al-Jazeera video (4min 13sec) and the transcript.

See the link for more nice Carter quotes, along with links to related articles.

It is frightening how many Western liberals feel able to identify with a campaign to destroy, by any means including murder of civilians, a democratic political entity recognised as a state by the UN.

Israel is wrong. In fact any theocracy which denies rights to citizens based on religion is wrong. We should not be supporting them.
