Jimmy Carter: “I agree that the Agency's personnel management needs to be strengthened to assure the success of our development…”

The title was very carefully chosen by me. And the first word is the most important. It's Palestine. The land of the Palestinians. It doesn't refer to Israel at all.

I recognize that Israel is a wonderful democracy with freedom of speech and equality of treatment under the law between Arab Israelis and Jewish Israelis.

This is a very wise and very courageous thing for President Obama to do. And in my opinion, is long overdue.

But among those who believe the case should be re-opened are politicians who don't always agree with each other, ranging from former president, Jimmy Carter to conservative former Georgia congressman, Bob Barr.
