Book Reviews of Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid
Book Review: A very brave man to take on the very powerful and dangerous Israeli Lobby..
Summary: 5 Stars
Did you notice that President Carter was not allowed to give a speech at the 2008 Democratic Convention despite that fact that it is long-standing tradition that every former president speak at his party's convention? Well, Mr. Carter's very frank assessment of the Palestinian situation (it's actually worse than apartheid; under apartheid, the negroes went home in the evenings but were at least allowed to earn a living during the day in the White areas. And, for this treatment, SA faced decades of INTL pressure and sanctions. Israel faces no such problem. The American media were esp. critical of SA, yet conspicuously silent on Israel. Why do you think?
I had never liked Carter previously, but his courage in coming out and facing what he knew would be a backlash of political terror from jewish pressure groups like the ADL and AIPAC deserves ALL patriotic American's admiration. The US State department is constantly harping on civil rights; yet, any talk of Palestinian civil Rights is conspicuously absent. Why? Jewish influence in American politics, campaign financing, and the media allow them to gag virtually EVERY politician on this subject, with the sole exception of someone like Pres. Carter who has the prestige and the independence to stand up to these bullies and report what he has experienced in Israel/Palestine first hand. Marvelous! When the struggle of the PAlestinians can take on the same appeal for gentile "liberals" as Ghandi or Mandela, this is when Palestinians will get their human rights back. If you won't believe a former president--and a democrat at that--about the conditions in Palestine, who will you believe. His bravery inspires me. EQUAL RIGHTS FOR NATIVE PALESTINIANS!! This is the major human rights crisis of this century.
