Here's why Carter is an idiot.... he writes a book under the premise that the Israeli-Arab conflict is one which is never gets discussed for politically correct reasons (or Jews control the media) ...and.... wait, stop there. What planet does he live on?
Then when Alan Dershowitz breaks down his book, lists the blatant mistakes and challenges him to debate the material, Carter, who claims he wrote the book to stir debate, refuses to debate it.
If that's not enough, you have one of Carters long time mid-east advisors quiting, a map in the book which was plagerised, and Carter himself can't seem to stand behind the title of his book when challenged in interviews. So what you have is an idiot who published an inflammatory bookk full of sophomoric mistakes he copied from anti-semitic websites, because he was hoping he'd become the hero of the Code Pink/New Left crowd.
Edit: 14 more Carter Center advisots quit. Not because Carter dared to talk about Israel, but because the hateful manner in which he did it.
