Judith, I never met such an alarmist as your David Horowitz. This time he has gone over the hill claiming Jimmy Carter is in a war of terror against the Jews. How arocious. Yet there is no escaping Jimmy Carter`s truth:
"For more than a quarter century, Israeli policy has been in conflict with that of the United States and the international community. Israel?s occupation of Palestine has obstructed a comprehensive peace agreement in the Holy Land, regardless of whether Palestinians had no formalized government, one headed by Yasir Arafat or Mahmoud Abbas, or with Abbas as president and Hamas controlling the parliament and cabinet.
The unwavering U.S. position since Dwight Eisenhower?s administration has been that Israel?s borders coincide with those established in 1949, and, since 1967, the universally adopted U.N. Resolution 242 has mandated Israel?s withdrawal from the occupied territories. This policy was reconfirmed even by Israel in 1978 and 1993, and emphasized by all American presidents, including George W. Bush. http://www.tompaine.com/articles/2006/03/09/colonization_of_palestine_precludes_peace.php |
